In 1814, we took a little trip Along with Colonel Jackson down the mighty Mississip'. We took a little bacon and we took a little beans And we caught the bloody British in a town in New Orleans.

We fired our guns and the British kept a-coming There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago. We fired once more, and they began to running, On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico.

You are aware that the “battle” (of New Orleans) you refer to occurred LONG AFTER the war of 1812 was OVER, right?
Reference the Treaty of Ghent.

While Johnny Horton could write a lively and entertaining tune, historical accuracy was NOT his forte. I present “Bismarck” as an example...

At the Battle of Baltimore in 1814, a teenage militia rifleman shot British Major General Robert Ross which delayed the British advance on Baltimore long enough for the Americans to establish adequate defense.
