[00:07.05] Well, this here's the story about the Battle of New Orleans,
[00:10.61] which was fit between the Yankees of course and them there English people,
[00:17.30] in which the British came off rather ignominiously.
[00:24.30] Well, in 1814, we took a little trip,
[00:26.36] along the Colonel Packenham down the mighty Mississipp.
[00:33.68] We took a little bacon and we took a little beans,
[00:36.61] and we fought the bloomin' British in the town of New Orleans
[00:41.49] Well, we fired our guns and the British kept a comin',
[00:44.55] there wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago.
[00:48.12] We fired once more and they began a running,
[00:50.68] on down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico.
[00:59.87] Well, we looked down the river till we see the British come,
[01:02.43] there must have been a hundred of 'em beatin' on the drum.
[01:05.37] They stepped so high and they made the bugles ring,
[01:08.24] well, we stood beside our cotton bales and never said a thing.
[01:11.18] Well, we looked down the river till we see the British come,
[01:14.40]
[01:23.48] and there must have been a hundred of them beating on the drum.
[01:29.85] They stepped so high and they made their bugles ring,
[01:32.35] While we stood behind our cotton bales and didn't say a thing.
[01:43.31] Well, Packenham said we could take 'em by surprise,
[01:45.55]
[02:00.43] if we didn't fire a musket till we looked `em in the eyes.
[02:02.56] Well, we stood quite still till we see their face well,
[02:04.62] then we opened up our muskets and we really gave 'em well.
[02:06.74] Well, we fired our guns and the British kept a comin',
[02:08.43] there wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago.
[02:10.49] We fired once more and they began a running,
[02:10.93] on down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico.
[02:11.80] Well, they ran through the briars and they ran through the brambles,
[02:14.87] and they ran through the bushes where the rabbits couldn't go.
[02:16.81] They ran so fast that the houndscouldn't catch 'em,
[02:19.30] all down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico.
[02:22.17]
[02:28.16] Well, we fired our muskets so the barrels melted down,
[02:30.65] then grabbed an alligator and we fought another round.
[02:33.66] Well, we stuffed his head with cannon balls and powdered his behind,
[02:39.54] so when we touched the powder off, the 'gator lost his mind.
[02:41.72] Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico. 4x
