《The Battle of New Orleans》歌词

[00:00:00] The Battle of New Orleans - Johnny Horton

[00:00:09] In eighteen-fourteen we took a little trip

[00:00:12] Along with colonel jackson down the mighty mississipp'

[00:00:14] We took a little bacon and we took a little beans

[00:00:17] And we caught the bloody british in the town of new orleans

[00:00:20] We fired our guns and the british kept on comin'

[00:00:22] There wasn't neigh as many as there was a while ago

[00:00:25] We fired once more and they began to runnin'

[00:00:28] On down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico

[00:00:33] We looked down the river and we seen the british come

[00:00:35] And there must have been a hundred of 'em beatin on the drum

[00:00:38] They stepped so high and they made their bugles ring

[00:00:41] We stood behind our cotton bales and didn't say a thing

[00:00:44] We fired our guns and the british kept on comin'

[00:00:46] There wasn't neigh as many as there was a while ago

[00:00:49] We fired once more and they began to runnin'

[00:00:51] On down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico

[00:00:57] Ol' hickory said we could take 'em by surprise

[00:00:59] If we didn't fire our muskets 'til we looked 'em in the eyes

[00:01:02] We held our fire 'til we seen their faces well

[00:01:04] Then we opened up our squirrel guns and really gave em well

[00:01:07] We fired our guns and the british kept on comin'

[00:01:11] There wasn't neigh as many as there was a while ago

[00:01:13] We fired once more and they began to runnin'

[00:01:16] On down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico

[00:01:21] Yeah they ran through the briars and they ran through the brambles

[00:01:24] And they ran through the bushes where a rabbit couldn't go

[00:01:27] They ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch 'em

[00:01:29] Down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico

[00:01:37] We fired our cannon 'til the barrel melted down

[00:01:40] Then we grabbed an alligator and we fought another round

[00:01:42] We filled his head with cannonballs and powered his behind

[00:01:45] And when we touched the powder off the 'gator lost his mind

[00:01:48] We fired our guns and the british kept on comin'

[00:01:50] There wasn't neigh as many as there was a while ago

[00:01:53] We fired once more and they began to runnin'

[00:01:56] On down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico

[00:02:01] They ran through the briars and they ran through the brambles

[00:02:04] And they ran through the bushes where a rabbit couldn't go

[00:02:06] They ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch 'em

[00:02:09] A down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico
