Battle Of New Orleans - Craig Douglas
In eighteen fourteen we took a little trip
Along with Colonel Jackson down the mighty Mississipp
We took a little bacon and we took a little beans
And we fought the bloody British in
The town of New Orleans
We fired our guns and the British kept a coming
There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they began to running
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
We looked down the river and we seed the British come
And there must've been a hundred of em
Beating on the drum
They stepped so high and made their bugles sing
We stood beside our cotton bails and didn't say a thing
We fired our guns and the British kept a coming
There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they began to running
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
Old hickory said we take em by surprise
If we didn't fire muskets till
We looked em in the eyes
We held our fire till we seed their faces well
Then we opened up our squirrel guns and
Really gave em hell
We fired our guns and the British kept a coming
There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they began to running
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
They ran to the briars
They ran through the brambles
And they ran through the bushes
Where a rabbit couldn't go
They ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch em
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
We fired our guns and the British kept a coming
There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they began to running
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
They ran through the briars
And they ran through the brambles
And they ran through the bushes
Where a rabbit couldn't go
They ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch em
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
