Battle of New Orleans - Craig Douglas[00:00:00]
In eighteen fourteen we took a little trip[00:00:06]
Along with Colonel Jackson down the mighty Mississipp[00:00:08]
We took a little bacon and we took a little beans[00:00:11]
And we fought the bloody British in[00:00:13]
The town of New Orleans[00:00:14]
We fired our guns and the British kept a coming[00:00:16]
There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago[00:00:18]
We fired once more and they began to running[00:00:21]
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico[00:00:23]
We looked down the river and we seed the British come[00:00:28]
And there must've been a hundred of em[00:00:30]
Beating on the drum[00:00:32]
They stepped so high and made their bugles sing[00:00:33]
We stood beside our cotton bails and didn't say a thing[00:00:35]
We fired our guns and the British kept a coming[00:00:38]
There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago[00:00:40]
We fired once more and they began to running[00:00:43]
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico[00:00:45]
Old hickory said we take em by surprise[00:00:50]
If we didn't fire muskets till[00:00:53]
We looked em in the eyes[00:00:54]
We held our fire till we seed their faces well[00:00:55]
Then we opened up our squirrel guns and[00:00:57]
Really gave em hell[00:00:59]
We fired our guns and the British kept a coming[00:01:01]
There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago[00:01:04]
We fired once more and they began to running[00:01:06]
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico[00:01:09]
They ran to the briars[00:01:11]
They ran through the brambles[00:01:12]
And they ran through the bushes[00:01:14]
Where a rabbit couldn't go[00:01:15]
They ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch em[00:01:16]
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico[00:01:18]
We fired our guns and the British kept a coming[00:01:21]
There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago[00:01:23]
We fired once more and they began to running[00:01:26]
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico[00:01:28]
They ran through the briars[00:01:31]
And they ran through the brambles[00:01:32]
And they ran through the bushes[00:01:33]
Where a rabbit couldn't go[00:01:34]
They ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch em[00:01:36]
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico[00:01:38]
