《The Battle of New Orleans》歌词

[00:00:00] The Battle of New Orleans - The Brothers Four

[00:00:05] In eighteen-fourteen we took a little trip

[00:00:07] Along with Colonel Jackson down the mighty Mississip'

[00:00:10] We took a little bacon and we took a little beans

[00:00:12] And we caught the bloody British

[00:00:14] In the town of New Orleans

[00:00:15] We fired our guns and the British

[00:00:17] Kept on comin'

[00:00:17] There wasn't neigh as many as there was a while ago

[00:00:20] We fired once more and they began to runnin'

[00:00:22] On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico

[00:00:25] We looked down the river and we seen the British come

[00:00:27] And there must have been a hundred of

[00:00:28] Them beatin on the drum

[00:00:30] They stepped so high

[00:00:31] And they made their bugles ring

[00:00:32] We stood behind our cotton bales

[00:00:33] And didn't say a thing

[00:00:35] We fired our guns and

[00:00:36] The British kept on comin'

[00:00:37] There wasn't neigh as many

[00:00:38] As there was a while ago

[00:00:40] We fired once more and they began to runnin'

[00:00:42] On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico

[00:00:44] Fired our guns fired our guns

[00:00:49] Oh Hickory said we could take them by surprise

[00:00:52] If we didn't fire our muskets

[00:00:53] Stil we looked them in the eyes

[00:00:54] We held our fire stil we seen their faces well

[00:00:57] Then we opened up our squirrel guns

[00:00:58] And really gave them well

[00:01:00] We fired our guns and

[00:01:02] The British kept on comin'

[00:01:03] There wasn't neigh

[00:01:03] As many as there was a while ago

[00:01:05] We fired once more and they began to runnin'

[00:01:08] On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico

[00:01:10] Yeah they ran through the

[00:01:11] Briars and they ran through the brambles

[00:01:12] And they ran through the bushes

[00:01:13] Where a rabbit couldn't go

[00:01:15] They ran so fast that the hounds

[00:01:17] Couldn't catch them

[00:01:17] Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico

[00:01:22] We fired our cannon until the barrel melted down

[00:01:25] So we grabbed an alligator and

[00:01:26] We fought another round

[00:01:27] We filled his head with cannonballs

[00:01:29] And powered his behind

[00:01:30] And when we touched the powder off the

[00:01:31] Gator lost his mind

[00:01:32] We fired our guns and the British kept on comin'

[00:01:35] There wasn't neigh as many as there was a while ago

[00:01:37] We fired once more and they began to runnin'

[00:01:40] On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico

[00:01:42] They ran through the briars

[00:01:43] And they ran through the brambles

[00:01:44] And they ran through the bushes

[00:01:45] Where a rabbit couldn't go

[00:01:47] They ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch them

[00:01:49] A down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
