Jimmy Driftwood The Battle of New Orleans

"The Battle of New Orleans" (1936)
Kontext: p>Ole Hickory said we could take 'em by surprise,
If we didn't fire our muskets 'til we looked 'em in the eyes.
We held our fire 'til we seed their faces well,
Then we opened up our squirrel guns an' really gave 'em... well! Yeah, they ran through the briars an' they ran through the brambles
An' they ran through the bushes where the rabbits couldn't go.
They ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch 'em
Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico.</p

“In 1814 we took a little trip
Along with Colonel Jackson down the mighty Mississip.”

"The Battle of New Orleans" (1936)
Kontext: p>In 1814 we took a little trip
Along with Colonel Jackson down the mighty Mississip.
We took a little bacon an' we took a little beans
And we caught the bloody British at the town of New Orleans. We fired our guns an' the British kept a'comin'.
There wasn't nigh as many as there was awhile ago.
We fired once more an' they begin to runnin'
Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico.</p

If I hadn't been a-ridin on the Tennessee stud.”
