Battle Of New Orleans歌词完整版

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 fought the bloody british in the town of new orleans

We fired our guns and the british kept a comin'

There wasn't 'bout as many as there was awhile ago

We fired once more and they began to runnin'

On down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico

Oh we looked down the river and we seen the british come

There must have been a hundred of 'em beatin' on a drum

They stepped so high and they made their bugles ring

We stood behind our cotton bales and didn't say a thing

Old hickory said we could take 'em by surprise

If we didn't fire our muskets till we looked 'em in the eyes

We held our fire till we seen their faces well

Then we opened up our squirrel guns and gave 'em a little

Well

We

Fired our guns and the british kept a comin'

There wasn't 'bout as many as there was awhile ago

We fired once more and they began to runnin'

On down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico

They ran thru the briar and they ran thru the bramble

They ran thru the bushes where a rabbit wouldn't go

They ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch 'em

Down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico

We fired our cannons till the barrels melted down

Then we grabbed an alligator and we fired another round

We filled his head with cannonballs 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 'bout as many as there was awhile ago

We fired once more and they began to runnin'

On down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico

We fired our guns and the british kept a comin'

There wasn't 'bout as many as there was awhile ago

We fired once more and they began to runnin'

On down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico
