Song Lyrics

In 1814 we took a little trip, old hickory said we could take em by surprise Nitty, on down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico
old hickory said we could take em by surprise
They stepped so high and they made their bugles ring, on down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico, along with colonel jackson down the mighty mississip
There wasn t bout as many as there was awhile ago, then we opened up our squirrel guns and gave em a little well we
We held our fire till we seen their faces well, we fired our guns and the british kept a comin Gritty, and when we touched the powder off

On down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico, we fired our guns and the british kept a comin, we held our fire till we seen their faces well
There wasn t bout as many as there was awhile ago, there wasn t bout as many as there was awhile ago
Fired our guns and the british kept a comin, oh we looked down the river and we seen the british come
We held our fire till we seen their faces well, oh we looked down the river and we seen the british come
On down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico, there wasn t bout as many as there was awhile ago Nitty, on down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico

We fired once more and they began to runnin, in 1814 we took a little trip Band, they stepped so high and they made their bugles ring
We fired our cannons till the barrels melted down, on down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico
we fired once more and they began to runnin
We fired once more and they began to runnin, we fired once more and they began to runnin Orleans, on down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico
on down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico

We took a little bacon and we took a little beans, then we opened up our squirrel guns and gave em a little well we Gritty, we fired once more and they began to runnin
There wasn t bout as many as there was awhile ago, we fired our cannons till the barrels melted down Orleans, there wasn t bout as many as there was awhile ago
We fired our guns and the british kept a comin, on down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico
We fired once more and they began to runnin, there wasn t bout as many as there was awhile ago, along with colonel jackson down the mighty mississip
Fired our guns and the british kept a comin, we fired once more and they began to runnin Of, they stepped so high and they made their bugles ring

we fired our guns and the british kept a comin
We fired our guns and the british kept a comin, we fired our cannons till the barrels melted down, we fired once more and they began to runnin
Then we opened up our squirrel guns and gave em a little well we, then we grabbed an alligator and we fired another round
There must have been a hundred of em beatin on a drum, there wasn t bout as many as there was awhile ago Gritty, we fired once more and they began to runnin
Oh we looked down the river and we seen the british come, there wasn t bout as many as there was awhile ago, there wasn t bout as many as there was awhile ago

We held our fire till we seen their faces well, we fired once more and they began to runnin, in 1814 we took a little trip
There wasn t bout as many as there was awhile ago, we filled his head with cannonballs and powdered his behind
If we didn t fire our muskets till we looked em in the eyes, there wasn t bout as many as there was awhile ago
on down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico
The gator lost his mind, there wasn t bout as many as there was awhile ago

we fired our guns and the british kept a comin
We held our fire till we seen their faces well, on down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico
There wasn t bout as many as there was awhile ago, we took a little bacon and we took a little beans
