[E] [A] In [D] 1814 we took a little trip [E] along with Colonel Jackson down to mighty [A] Mississippi
[D] bacon and we took a little [E] beans and we caught the bloody [A] British in a town in New Orleans
guns and the British kept coming
more and they began to run it
We looked down a river and we [D] see the British come
hundred of them beating on the drum
cotton fields and didn't say a thing
as many as there was a while ago
[D] bacon and we took a little [E] beans and we caught the bloody [A] British in a town in New Orleans

[E] _ [A] _ _ _ _ In [D] 1814 we took a little trip [E] along with Colonel Jackson down to mighty [A] Mississippi
We took a little [D] bacon and we took a little [E] beans and we caught the bloody [A] British in a town in New Orleans
We fired our guns and the British kept coming
There wasn't as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they began to run it
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico _ _
_ We looked down a river and we [D] see the British come
And there must have been a hundred of them beating on the drum
They stepped so high and they made their bugles ring
We [E] stood beside our cotton fields and didn't say a thing
We fired our guns and the British kept coming
There wasn't as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they began to run it
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
_ _ Old Hick Cree [D] said we could take them by [E] surprise
If we didn't fire muskets till [A] we looked them in the eye
We held [D] our fire till we see their faces well
Then we opened up our squirrel guns and really [A] gave them well
We fired our guns and the British kept coming
There wasn't as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they began to run it
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
_ _ _ Yeah, they ran through the briars and they ran through the brambles
And they ran through the bushes where a rabbit couldn't go
They ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch them
On down the Mississippi [E] to the Gulf of Mexico _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ We fired our cannon [D] till the barrel melted [E] down
So we grabbed an alligator [A] and we fought another round
We filled his head with [D] cannonballs and powdered his [E] behind
And when we touched the powder off the gator lost his mind
We fired our guns and the British kept coming
There wasn't as many as there [A] was a while ago
We fired once more and they began to run it
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico _ _
Yeah, they ran through the briars and they ran through the brambles
And they ran through the bushes where a rabbit couldn't go
They ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch them
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
_ _ _ _ [E] Oh! _
