《The Battle Of New Orleans》歌词

[00:00:00] The Battle Of New Orleans - Leon Russell (拉塞尔)

[00:00:12] Well in eighteen-fourteen we took a little trip

[00:00:14] Along with colonel jackson down the mighty mississip

[00:00:17] We took a little bacon and we took a little beans

[00:00:20] And we caught the bloody british at the town of new orleans

[00:00:23] We fired our guns and the british kept a-comin'

[00:00:25] There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago

[00:00:27] We fired once more and they all began a-runnin'

[00:00:30] Down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico

[00:00:38] Well we eye-balled the river and we see the limeys come

[00:00:40] Musta been a hunnert of 'em beatin' on a drum

[00:00:42] And then they stepped so high and they made the bugles ring

[00:00:46] We hid behind our cotton bales and didn't say a thing

[00:00:48] We fired our guns and the british kept a-comin'

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

[00:00:53] We fired once more and they all began a-runnin'

[00:00:55] Down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico

[00:01:14] Now old hickory says we can take 'em by surprise

[00:01:16] If we don't shoot our wads 'til we look 'em in the eyes

[00:01:19] So we held off our fire 'til we see them real well

[00:01:21] Then we opened up our squirrel guns and really gave 'em hell

[00:01:24] We fired our guns and the british kept a-comin'

[00:01:26] There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago

[00:01:29] We fired once more and they all began a-runnin'

[00:01:31] Down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico

[00:01:36] Well they ran through the briars and they ran through the brambles

[00:01:39] And they ran through the bushes where the rabbits couldn't go

[00:01:42] Ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch 'em

[00:01:45] Down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico

[00:01:52] Well we fired our cannon 'til the barrel melted down

[00:01:54] So we grabbed an alligator and we turned his tail around

[00:01:57] We stuffed his head with cannon balls and powdered his behind

[00:02:00] And when we lit the fuse that old gator blew his mind

[00:02:03] We fired our guns and the british kept a-comin'

[00:02:05] There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago

[00:02:08] We fired once more and they all began a-runnin'

[00:02:10] Down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico

[00:02:15] Well they ran through the briars and they ran through the brambles

[00:02:18] And they ran through the bushes where the rabbits couldn't go

[00:02:21] Ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch 'em

[00:02:24] Down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico
