[G] [A]
[E] [A] In [D] 1814 we took a little trip [E] Along the Colonel Jackson [Am] down to mighty [A] Mississippi
[A] British in the town [G] of New Orleans
many as there was a while ago
[E] to the Gulf [A] of Mexico
[D] river till we see the British [E] come
[D] high that they made the bugles [E] ring We stood behind the [A] cotton bales and didn't
guns and the British kept running

[E] _ _ [A] In [D] 1814 we took a little trip [E] Along the Colonel Jackson [Am] down to mighty [A] Mississippi
We took a little bacon [D] and we took a little [E] beans
And we caught the bloody [A] British in the town [G] of New Orleans
[A] We fired our guns and the British kept running Wasn't as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they began to run Down the Mississippi [E] to the Gulf [A] of Mexico
We _ _ looked down the [D] river till we see the British [E] come
And there must have been a [A] hundred of them beating on a drum
Step [C#] so [D] high that they made the bugles [E] ring We stood behind the [A] cotton bales and didn't
say a thing We fired our guns and the British kept running
Wasn't as [E] many as there was a while [A] ago We fired once more and they began to run
Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico _ _
_ Old Hick Chris [D] said we could take them by [E] surprise
If we didn't fire [F#m] muskets till we looked them in the [A] eye
Held our [D] fire till we see their faces [E] well We opened up our [Am] squirrel guns and [A] really
give them whirl
We fired our guns and the British kept running Wasn't as [C#m] many as there [A] was a while ago
Fired once more and they began to run Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
_ Well _ they ran through the friars and they ran through the brambles
And they ran through the bushes where [E] a rabbit couldn't [A] go
Ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch him
Down the [E] Mississippi to [A] the Gulf of Mexico
[Am] We _ _ _ _ _ [A] fired our cannon till [D] the barrel melted down
[E] We grabbed an alligator and [Em] we fought another round
[A] The field is here with cannonballs [D] the pallet is behind
[E] And when we touched [A] the powder off the gator lost his mind
We fired our guns and the British kept running Wasn't as many as there was a while ago
Fired once more and they began to run Down the Mississippi to [E] the Gulf of [A] Mexico
_ _ Well they ran through the friars and they ran through the brambles
And they ran through the bushes where a rabbit couldn't go
Ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch him
