[Verse 1]
Well, 1814 we took a little trip
Along with Colonel Jackson down the mighty Mississip'
We took a little bacon and we took a little beans
We met the bloody British in a town near New Orleans

[Chorus]
We fired our guns and the British kept a-comin'
There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they begin to runnin'
Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico

[Verse 2]
We looked down a river
And we see'd the British come
And there must havе been a hundred of 'em
Beatin' on thе drums

[Verse 3]
They stepped so high
And they made their bugles ring
We stood beside our cotton bales
And didn't say a thing

[Chorus]
We fired our guns and the British kept a-comin'
There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they begin to runnin'
Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
