The Battle Of New Orleans chords
Johnny Horton (Jimmy Driftwood)
Capo I
G D
G C D G
G C
In 1814 we took a little trip
D7 G
Along with Col. Jackson down the mighty mississip'd
C
We took a little bacon and we took a little beans
D7 G
And we caught the bloody British in a town in New Orleans.
G
We fired our guns and the British kept a comin'
D7 G
There wasn't as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they began to runnin'
D7 G
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico.
G C
We looked down the river and we see'd the British come
D7 G
And there musta been a hund'erd of 'em beatin' on the drum
C
They stepped so high and they made their bugles ring
D7 G
We stood beside our cotton bales and didn't say a thing.
G
We fired our guns and the British kept a comin'
D7 G
There wasn't as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they began to runnin'
D7 G
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico.
G C
Old Hick'ry said we could take 'em by su'prise
D7 G
If we didn't fire our musket till we looked 'em in the eyes
C
We held our fire till we see'd their faces well
D7 G
Then we opened up with squirrel guns and really gave 'em ... Well -
G
We fired our guns and the British kept a comin'
D7 G
There wasn't as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they began to runnin'
D7 G
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico.
G
Yeah! they ran through the briars and they ran through the brambles
D7 G
And they ran through the bushes where a rabbit couldn't go
They ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch 'em
D7 G
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico.
G C
We fired our cannon till the barrel melted down
D7 G
So we grabbed an alligator and we fought another round
C
We filled his head with cannonballs and powdered his behind
D7 G
And when we touched the powder off, the 'gator lost his mind.
G
We fired our guns and the British kept a comin'
D7 G
There wasn't as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they began to runnin'
D7 G
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico.
G
Yeah! they ran through the briars and they ran through the brambles
D7 G
And they ran through the bushes where a rabbit couldn't go
They ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch 'em
D7 G
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico.
