Intro 1
(G major)
(C major) (D major) (G major)
In 1814, we (C major) took a little trip Along
Verse 1
(D major)
with Colonel Judson
down to (G major) mighty Mississippi
Took a little bacon and we
(C major) took a little beans
And we (D major) chased the bloody British
on the (G major) way to New Orleans
We fired our guns
and the British kept a -comin'
Wasn't quite as many
as the (D major) ones the Wally (G major) did
Fired once more and
they began a -runnin'
Down the Mississippi to
the (D major) Gulf of Mexico
(G major) One, two, three, four
Well, we looked down the river
and we (C major) see the British comin'
There (D major) must have been a hundred
of them (G major) beatin' on the drum
Stepped so high and they
(C major) made the beagle ring
That we (D major) stood beside the cotton bale
and (G major) didn't say a thing
We fired our guns
and the British kept a -comin'
Wasn't quite as many as
there (D major) was a while (G major) ago
Fired once more and
they began a -runnin'
Down the Mississippi to
the (D major) Gulf of Mexico
(G major) One, two, three, four
Old Hickory said that we'd
(C major) take them by surprise
If we (D major) didn't fire a musket
till we (G major) looked them in the eye
We held our fire till we
(C major) see the faces well
Then we (D major) opened up the squirrel guns
and (G major) really gave them hell
We fired our guns
and the British kept a -comin'
Wasn't quite as many as
there (D major) was a while (G major) ago
I had one smaller and they
began a -runnin'
Down in Mississippi to the (D major) Gulf of Mexico (G major)
One, two, three, four
Well they ran to the barns
and they ran to the brambles
And they ran to the bushes
where (D major) a rabbit couldn't (G major) go
Ran so fast that the hounds
couldn't catch him
Down the Mississippi to the
(D major) Gulf of Mis (G major) sissippi
Well, we fired our cannon
till the (C major) barrel melted down
So we (D major) grabbed an alligator
and we (G major) fought another round
He filled his head with cannonballs
and (C major) parted his behind
When (D major) we touched the powder off
he (G major) nearly lost his mind
We fired our guns
and the British kept a -coming
Wasn't quite as many
as there (D major) was a while (G major) ago
Fired once more and
they began a -running
Down the Mississippi to the
(D major) Gulf of Mississippi
(G major) One, two, three, four
Well they ran through the barns
and they ran through the brambles
And they ran through the bushes
where (D major) a rabbit couldn't (G major) go
They ran so fast
that the hounds couldn't catch them
Down the Mississippi
to the (D major) Gulf of Mexico
(G major) Up, two, three, four
Up, two, three, four
Up, two, three, four
Up, two, three, four
Up, two, three, four
Up, two, three, four
1, 2, 3, 4
