[Intro]

[Verse 1]
D2 G
In 1814, we took a little trip
A7 D2
'Long with Col. Jackson down the mighty Mississip
G
Took a little bacon and we took a little beans
A7 D2
And caught the bloody British in the town in New Orleans
[Chorus]
D2
Fired our gun and the British kept a-comin'
A7 D2
And they wasn't nigh as many as they was a while ago
And we fired once more and they began a-runnin'
A7 D2
On down the Mississippa to the Gulfa Mexico
[Verse 2]
D2 G
Look down river, we see'd the British come
A7 D2
Musta been a hund'erd of 'em beatin' on the drum //
G
Steppin' so high like to make the bugles ring
A7 D2
We stood beside our cotton bales and didn't say a thing
[Chorus]
D2
We fired our gun and the British kept a-comin'
A7 D2
Wasn't nigh as many as they was a while ago
Fired once more and they began a-runnin'
A7 D2 | D2 |
On down the Mississippa to the Gulfa Mexico
[Bridge]
D2
And, they ran through the briar and they ran through the brambles
A7 D2
And they ran through the bushes where a rabbit couldn't go
Ran so fast the hounds they couldn't catch 'em all
A7 D2
Down the Mississippa to the Gulfa Mexico
[Break]
| D G | A7 D | D G | A7 D |
[Verse 3]
D2 G
Ol' Hickory said you could take 'em by su'prise
A7 D2
If you didn't fire a musket 'til you looked 'em in the eyes
G
We held our fire 'til we see'd their faces well
A7 D2
Then we opened up with squirrel guns and give 'em a little hell
[Chorus]
D2
We fired our gun and the British kept a-comin'
A7 D2
Wasn't nigh as many as they was a while ago
Fired once more and they began a-runnin'
A7 D2 | D2 |
On down the Mississippa to the Gulfa Mexico
[Verse 4]
D2 G
We fired our cannon 'til the barrel melted down
A7 D2
Grabbed an alligator then we fought another round
G
Filled his head with cannonball an' powdered his behind
A7 D2
And when we touched the powder off the 'gator blew his mind
[Break]
