Battle Of New Orleans Chords & Lyrics - Misc Your Songs - Kerm

[VERSE]
In[D] 1814 we [C]took a little t[G]rip [A]
alo[D]ng with Colonel Jackson down the [C]mighty M[G]ississip' [A]
We b[A]rought a little bacon and we [C]brought a little b[G]eans [A]
and [A]we fought the British in the [C]town of New Orl[G]eans [A]

[CHORUS]
We [A]looked up the river and we se[C]en the British [G]come.[A]
There m[A]usta' been a hundred just [C]beatin' on a d[G]rum [A]
They st[A]epped so high and they ma[C]de their bu[G]gles ring[A]
We s[D]tood beside our c[C]otton bales and didn't say a th[G]ing[A] .

[VERSE]
Ol H[D]ickory said we could [C]take 'em by supr[G]ise [A]
if we di[D]dn't fire our [C]muskets till we looked 'em in the [G]eye [A]
We h[D]eld our fire till we se[C]en their faces w[G]ell [A]
Then we o[D]pened up our s[C]quirrell guns and re[G]ally gave 'em h[A]ell[A]

[CHORUS]
We f[A]ired our guns and the B[C]ritish kept a c[A]omin'
But there w[A]asn't nigh as many as there w[C]as a while ag[A]o
We f[A]ired once more and t[C]hey began to ru[A]nnin
d[A]own the Mississippi to the G[C]ulf of [G]Me[A]xico

[VERSE]
They r[A]an through the briars and they r[C]an through the [A]brambles
they r[A]an through the bushes where a ra[C]bbit couldn't [A]go
They r[A]an so fast that the ho[C]unds couldn't c[A]atch 'em
d[A]own the Mississippi to the G[C]ulf [G]of[A] Mexico
