The Battle of New Orleans - Lonnie Donegan
Well this here's the story about the Battle of New Orleans
新奥尔良之战的故事是这样的
Which was fit between the Yankees of course and them there English people
这是关于英美人之间的事
In which the British came off rather ignominiously
在战争中英国人甚是可耻
Well in 1814 we took a little trip
1814年我们有一次小小的旅行
Along the Colonel Packenham down the mighty Mississipp
跟着Packenham上校来到密西西比
We took a little bacon and we took a little beans
我们带了点培根肉和豆子
And we fought the bloomin' British in the town of New Orleans
在新奥尔良与英国开战
Well we fired our guns and the British kept a comin'
我们开枪燃起战火 英国人陆续赶来
There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago
之前这附近并没有那么多英国人
We fired once more and they began a running
我们再次开火 他们开始奔跑
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
沿着密西西比来到墨西哥海湾
Well we looked down the river till we see the British come
我们低头看河面直到看到英国人赶到
There must have been a hundred of 'em beatin' on the drum
那里一定有成千上百的人敲着鼓
They stepped so high and they made the bugles ring
他们大步向前 吹着号角
Well we stood beside our cotton bales and never said a thing
我们站在棉袋旁一声不吭
Well we looked down the river till we see the British come
我们低头看河面直到看到英国人赶到
And there must have been a hundred of them beating on the drum
那里一定有成千上百的人敲着鼓
They stepped so high and they made their bugles ring
他们大步向前 吹着号角
While we stood behind our cotton bales and didn't say a thing
而我们站在棉袋旁一声不吭
Well Packenham said we could take 'em by surprise
Packenham上校说我们可以出其不意将其拿下
If we didn't fire a musket till we looked `em in the eyes
如果肉眼无法看到他们不要开枪
Well we stood quite still till we see their face well
我们静静站着直到看到他们的脸
Then we opened up our muskets and we really gave 'em well
然后我们开枪将他们打了个落花流水
Well we fired our guns and the British kept a comin'
我们开枪燃起战火 英国人陆续赶来
There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago
之前这附近并没有那么多英国人
We fired once more and they began a running
我们再次开火 他们开始奔跑
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
沿着密西西比来到墨西哥海湾
Well they ran through the briars and they ran through the brambles
他们越过荆棘
And they ran through the bushes where the rabbits couldn't go
越过连兔子都不去的地方
They ran so fast that the houndscouldn't catch 'em
他们飞奔着连猎犬都追不上
All down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
都沿着密西西比来到墨西哥海湾
Well we fired our muskets so the barrels melted down
我们不停地开枪 枪管都要融化了
Then grabbed an alligator and we fought another round
抓住一个花花公子 我们开始另一回合
Well we stuffed his head with cannon balls and powdered his behind
我们在他的头里填满了榴弹炮 在他身后撒满了火药
So when we touched the powder off the 'gator lost his mind
当我们点燃火药 那个花花公子失去了意识
Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
沿着密西西比来到墨西哥海湾
