Artist: Johnny Horton
In [G]Eighteen-Fourteen we [C]took a little trip
A[D]long with Colonel Jackson down the [G]mighty Mississip'
We took a little bacon and we [C]took a little beans
And we [D]caught the bloody British in the [G]town of New Orleans
[CHORUS 1]
We [G]fired our guns and the British kept a-comin'
But, there wasn't nigh as many as there was a [D]while a[G]go
We fired once more and they began to runnin'
On down the Mississippi to the G[D]ulf Of Mexi[G]co
A[D]long with Colonel Jackson down the [G]mighty Mississip'
We took a little bacon and we [C]took a little beans
And we [D]caught the bloody British in the [G]town of New Orleans
[CHORUS 1]
We [G]fired our guns and the British kept a-comin'
But, there wasn't nigh as many as there was a [D]while a[G]go
We fired once more and they began to runnin'
On down the Mississippi to the G[D]ulf Of Mexi[G]co
