there wasn't 'bout as many as there was awhile ago. we fired once more and they began to runnin'
on down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico. oh we looked down the river and we seen the british come. there must have been a hundred of 'em beatin' on a drum. they stepped so high and they made their bugles ring. we stood behind our cotton bales and didn't say a thing. old hickory said we could take 'em by surprise
if we didn't fire our muskets till we looked 'em in the eyes. we held our fire till we seen their faces well
