In 1814 we took a little trip Along with Colonel Jackson down the mighty Mississip' We took a little backon and we took a little beans And we caught the bloody British in the town of New Orleans
Chours:
We fried our guns and the British kept a'comin' There wasn't nigh many as there was a while ago We fried once a more and they began to runnin' on Down the Mississipi to the Gulf of Mexico
We looked down the river and we see'd the British come And there must have been a hundred of'em beatin' on the drum They stepped so high and they made the bungles ring We stood by our cotton bales and didn't say a thing
