The Battle of New Orleans - The Brothers Four[00:00:00]

In eighteen-fourteen we took a little trip[00:00:05]

Along with Colonel Jackson down the mighty Mississip'[00:00:07]

We took a little bacon and we took a little beans[00:00:10]

And we caught the bloody British[00:00:12]

In the town of New Orleans [00:00:14]

We fired our guns and the British[00:00:15]

Kept on comin'[00:00:17]

There wasn't neigh as many as there was a while ago[00:00:17]

We fired once more and they began to runnin'[00:00:20]

On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico [00:00:22]

We looked down the river and we seen the British come[00:00:25]

And there must have been a hundred of[00:00:27]

Them beatin on the drum[00:00:28]

They stepped so high[00:00:30]

And they made their bugles ring[00:00:31]

We stood behind our cotton bales[00:00:32]

And didn't say a thing [00:00:33]

We fired our guns and[00:00:35]

The British kept on comin'[00:00:36]

There wasn't neigh as many[00:00:37]

As there was a while ago[00:00:38]

We fired once more and they began to runnin'[00:00:40]

On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico [00:00:42]

Fired our guns fired our guns[00:00:44]

Oh Hickory said we could take them by surprise[00:00:49]

If we didn't fire our muskets[00:00:52]

Stil we looked them in the eyes[00:00:53]

We held our fire stil we seen their faces well[00:00:54]

Then we opened up our squirrel guns[00:00:57]

And really gave them well [00:00:58]

We fired our guns and[00:01:00]

The British kept on comin'[00:01:02]

There wasn't neigh[00:01:03]

As many as there was a while ago[00:01:03]

We fired once more and they began to runnin'[00:01:05]

On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico [00:01:08]

Yeah they ran through the[00:01:10]

Briars and they ran through the brambles[00:01:11]

And they ran through the bushes[00:01:12]

Where a rabbit couldn't go [00:01:13]

They ran so fast that the hounds[00:01:15]

Couldn't catch them[00:01:17]

Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico [00:01:17]

We fired our cannon until the barrel melted down[00:01:22]

So we grabbed an alligator and[00:01:25]

We fought another round[00:01:26]

We filled his head with cannonballs[00:01:27]

And powered his behind[00:01:29]

And when we touched the powder off the[00:01:30]

Gator lost his mind [00:01:31]

We fired our guns and the British kept on comin'[00:01:32]

There wasn't neigh as many as there was a while ago[00:01:35]

We fired once more and they began to runnin'[00:01:37]

On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico [00:01:40]

They ran through the briars[00:01:42]

And they ran through the brambles[00:01:43]

And they ran through the bushes[00:01:44]

Where a rabbit couldn't go[00:01:45]

They ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch them[00:01:47]

A down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico[00:01:49]
