One, two, [A] three.
Fanny, [D] fanny, fanny, fanny, fanny, [E] fanny, fanny, [A] fanny.
In [D] 1814 we took a little [E] trip
Along with Colonel [A] Jackson down to mighty Mississippi
Took a little pickin' and we took a little [E] beans
And we fought the bloody [A] British in the town of New Orleans
Fired our guns and the British kept a-comin'
Wasn't as many as there was a while ago
Fired once more and they began a-runnin'
Down to Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
Old Hickory [D] said we could take them by [E] surprise
If we didn't fire [A] muskets till we looked them in the eye
We held our fire [D] till we see their faces well
[E] Opened up our squirrel [A] guns and really gave them well
We fired our guns and the British kept a-comin'
Wasn't as many as there was a while ago
Fired once more and they began a-runnin'
Down to Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
Y'all help me now
Yeah, they ran through the browns and they ran through the crambles
And they ran through the bushes where a rabbit wouldn't go
Ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch them
Down to [E] Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
[A] Come on, Mr.
Kimbrough, let's play it

My time
Well, we fired our cannon [D] till the barrel moved it down
[E] Then we grabbed an alligator [A] and we fought another round
Then we said [D] we'd cannonball some powder in his [E] behind
And when we touched the [A] powder on the gator, lo and behind
We fired our guns and the British kept a-comin'
[F#m] Wasn't as many as there was [A] a while ago
Fired once more and they began a-runnin'
Down to Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
Yeah, they ran through the browns and they ran through the crambles
And they ran through the bushes where a rabbit wouldn't go
Ran so fast that the hounds couldn't catch them
Down to Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
I said down to Mississippi [E] to the Gulf of [A] Mexico
