The Battle Of New Orleans歌詞

Johnny Horton The Battle Of New Orleans
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 a town in New Orleans
We fired our guns and the British kept a-comin'
There wasn't nigh 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
We looked down a river
Hut-two
And we see'd the British come
Three-four
And there must have been a hundred of'em
Hut-two
Beatin' on the drums
Three-four
They stepped so high
Hut-two
And they made their bugles ring
Three-four
We stood by our cotton bales
(Hut-two)
And didn't say a thing
We fired our guns and the British kept a-comin'
There wasn't nigh 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
Old Hickory said we could take 'em by surprise
If we didn't fire our muskets
One-hut two-three-four
One-hut two-three-four
'Till we looked 'em in the eye
One-hut two-three-four
We held our fire
Hut two-three-four
'Till 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 nigh 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
One-hup-two
And they ran through the brambles
Hup-two-three-four
And they ran through the bushes
Hup-two
Where the rabbit couldn't go
Hup-two-three-four
They ran so fast
Hup-two
That the hounds couldn't catch 'em
One-two-three-four
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
One-two hup-two-three-four
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 nigh 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
Hup-one-two
And they ran through the brambles
One-two-three-four
And they ran through the bushes
Hup-two
Where the rabbit couldn't go
Hup-two-three-four
They ran so fast
Hup-two
That the hounds couldn't catch 'em
One-two-three-four
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
One-two hup-two-three-four
Hut-two-three-four
Sound off three-four
Hut-two-three-four
Sound off three-four
Hut-two-three-four
Hut-two-three-fou
