“The Battle of New Orleans” Johnny Horton

In 1814 we took a little trip
Along with Colonel Jacksond down the mighty Mississip
We took a little bacon and we took a little beans
And we fought the bloody British at a town called New Orleans.

We fired our guns and the British kept a comin,
There wasn’t quite as many as there was awhile ago
We fired once more and they began a running
on down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico

"We fired our cannon 'til the barrel melted down. So we grabbed an alligator and we fought another round. We filled his head with cannon balls, and powdered his behind And when we touched the powder off, the gator lost his mind."
I have Johnny Horton's greatest hits on CD also, which includes "Sink the Bismark" and "North to Alaska".
