Lyrics The Battle of New Orleans - Johnny Horton
In
1814,
we
took
a
little
trip
Along
with
Colonel
Jackson
down
the
mighty
Mississip'
We
took
a
little
bacon
and
we
took
a
little
beans
And
we
caught
the
bloody
British
in
the
town
of
New
Orleans
We
fired
our
guns
and
the
British
kept
a-comin'
There
wasn't
as
many
as
there
was
a
while
ago
We
fired
once
more
and
they
began
to
runnin'
On
down
the
Mississippi
to
the
Gulf
of
Mexico
We
looked
down
a
river
And
we
see'd
the
British
come
And
there
must
have
been
a
hundred
of
'em
Beatin'
on
the
drums
They
stepped
so
high
and
they
made
their
bugles
ring
We
stood
beside
our
cotton
bales
and
didn't
say
a
thing
We
fired
our
guns
and
the
British
kept
a-comin'
There
wasn't
as
many
as
there
was
a
while
ago
We
fired
once
more
and
they
began
to
runnin'
On
down
the
Mississippi
to
the
Gulf
of
Mexico
Old
Hickory
said
we
could
take
'em
by
surprise
If
we
didn't
fire
our
muskets
'Til
we
looked
'em
in
the
eye
We
held
our
fire
'Til
we
see'd
their
faces
well
Then
we
opened
up
our
squirrel
guns
And
really
gave
'em,
well
We
fired
our
guns
and
the
British
kept
a-comin'
There
wasn't
as
many
as
there
was
a
while
ago
We
fired
once
more
and
they
begin
to
runnin'
On
down
the
Mississippi
to
the
Gulf
of
Mexico
Yeah,
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
We
fired
our
cannon
'til
the
barrel
melted
down
So
we
grabbed
an
alligator
and
we
fought
another
round
We
filled
his
head
with
cannon
balls,
and
powdered
his
behind
And
when
we
touched
the
powder
off
the
gator
lost
his
mind
We
fired
our
guns
and
the
British
kept
a-comin'
There
wasn't
as
many
as
there
was
a
while
ago
We
fired
once
more
and
they
began
to
runnin'
On
down
the
Mississippi
to
the
Gulf
of
Mexico
Yeah,
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
