[00:09.89]In 1814 we took a little trip
[00:12.41]Along with Colonel Jackson down the mighty Mississip
[00:15.09]We took a little bacon and we took a little beans
[00:17.63]And we caught the bloody British in the town of New Orleans.
[00:20.32]We fired our guns and the British kept a comin'
[00:23.14]There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago.
[00:25.45]We fired once more and they began to runnin'
[00:28.57]On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
[00:34.04]We looked down the river and we see'd the British come
[00:36.65]And there must've been a hundred of'em beatin' on the drum
[00:39.31]They stepped so high and they made the bugles ring
[00:41.96]We stood beside our cotton bales, didn't say a thing
[00:44.65]We fired our guns and the British kept a comin'
[00:47.51]There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago.
[00:49.94]We fired once more and they began to runnin'
[00:53.03]On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
[00:58.16]Old Hickory said we could take 'em by surprise
[01:00.87]If we didn't fire our muskets till we looked 'em in the eye
[01:03.61]We held our fire till we seen their faces well
[01:06.36]Then we opened up with squirrel guns and really gave 'em ... well
[01:10.03]We fired our guns and the British kept a comin'
[01:12.58]There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago.
[01:15.26]We fired once more and they began to runnin'
[01:18.00]On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
[01:23.36]Yeah, they ran through the briars and they ran through the brambles
[01:25.90]And they ran through the bushes, where a rabbit couldn't go
[01:28.76]They ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch 'em
[01:31.38]On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
[01:36.69]We fired our cannon 'til the barrel melted down
[01:42.04]So we grabbed an alligator and we fought another round
[01:44.72]We filled his head with cannon balls and powdered his behind
[01:47.44]And when we touched the powder off, the gator lost his mind
[01:50.38]We fired our guns and the British kept a comin'
[01:52.78]There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago.
[01:55.54]We fired once more and they began to runnin'
[01:58.31]On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
[02:03.53]Yeah, they ran through the briars and they ran through the brambles
[02:06.29]And they ran through the bushes, where a rabbit couldn't go
[02:09.13]They ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch 'em
[02:11.75]On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
[02:16.63]
