Battle of New Orleans Chords & Lyrics by Johnny Horton

Battle of New Orleans

guitar chords lyrics

Johnny Horton

A D
In Eighteen-Fourteen we took a little trip
E A
Along with Colonel Jackson down the mighty Mississip'
D
We took a little bacon and we took a little beans
E A
And we caught the bloody British in the town of New Orleans

Chorus 1
A
We fired our guns and the British kept a-comin'
E A
But, there wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago

We fired once more and they began to runnin'
E A
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf Of Mexico
