Jim Ed Brown And The Browns

The Battle Of New Orleans

(Jimmie Driftwood)

In eighteen-fourteen we took a little trip
Along with Colonel Jackson down the mighty Mississipp'
We took a little bacon and we took a little beans
And we met the bloody British near the town of New Orleans.

We fired our guns and the British kept a comin'
There wasn't night as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they began to runnin'
Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico.

We looked down the river and we see'd the British come
And there must've been a hundred of 'em beatin' on the drums
They stepped so high and they made their bugles ring
While we stood beside the cotton bails and didn't say a thing.

We fired our guns and the British kept a comin'
There wasn't night as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they began to runnin'
Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico.

Old Hickory said we'd take 'em by surprise
If we didn't fire our muskets till we looked 'em in the eyes
We held our fire till we see'd their faces well
Then we opened up our squirrel guns and really gave 'em hell.

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
Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico.

Well, we fired our cannon till the barrel melted down
Then we grabbed an alligator and we fought another round
We filled his head with cannonballs and powdered his behind
And when we shot the powder off the gator lost his mind.

We fired our guns and the British kept a comin'
There wasn't night as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they began to runnin'
Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico.

We fired our guns and the British kept a comin'
There wasn't night as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they began to runnin'
Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico...

Mirror lyrics:

Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico...
We fired once more and they began to runnin'
There wasn't night as many as there was a while ago
We fired our guns and the British kept a comin'

Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico.
We fired once more and they began to runnin'
There wasn't night as many as there was a while ago
We fired our guns and the British kept a comin'

And when we shot the powder off the gator lost his mind.
We filled his head with cannonballs and powdered his behind
Then we grabbed an alligator and we fought another round
Well, we fired our cannon till the barrel melted down

Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico.
They ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch 'em
And they ran through the bushes where a rabbit couldn't go
Yeah, they ran through the briars and they ran through the brambles

Then we opened up our squirrel guns and really gave 'em hell.
We held our fire till we see'd their faces well
If we didn't fire our muskets till we looked 'em in the eyes
Old Hickory said we'd take 'em by surprise
