Misc Your Songs - Kerm - battle of new orleans

In^D 1814 we ^Ctook a little t^Grip ^A alo^Dng with Colonel Jackson down the ^Cmighty M^Gississip' ^A We b^Arought a little bacon and we ^Cbrought a little b^Geans ^A and ^Awe fought the British in the ^Ctown of New Orl^Geans ^A

We ^Alooked up the river and we se^Cen the British ^Gcome.^A There m^Austa' been a hundred just ^Cbeatin' on a d^Grum ^A They st^Aepped so high and they ma^Cde their bu^Ggles ring^A We s^Dtood beside our c^Cotton bales and didn't say a th^Ging^A.

Ol H^Dickory said we could ^Ctake 'em by supr^Gise ^A if we di^Ddn't fire our ^Cmuskets till we looked 'em in the ^Geye ^A We h^Deld our fire till we se^Cen their faces w^Gell ^A Then we o^Dpened up our s^Cquirrell guns and re^Gally gave 'em h^Aell^A

We f^Aired our guns and the B^Critish kept a c^Aomin' But there w^Aasn't nigh as many as there w^Cas a while ag^Ao We f^Aired once more and t^Chey began to ru^Annin d^Aown the Mississippi to the G^Culf of ^GMe^Axico

They r^Aan through the briars and they r^Can through the ^Abrambles they r^Aan through the bushes where a ra^Cbbit couldn't ^Ago They r^Aan so fast that the ho^Cunds couldn't c^Aatch 'em d^Aown the Mississippi to the G^Culf ^Gof^A Mexico
