You forgot the next to last verse which is

The guide who brung the British from the sea
Come limpin' into camp just as sick as he could be
He said the dyin' words of Col. Pakenham
Was "better quit your foolin' when you're crossin' Uncle Sam"

Again-- learned from Frank Hamilton & Pete Seeger's Nonesuch! For what it's worth the family spelled the name without the "c" -- and Col. Pakenham's sister Kitty married Sir Arther Wellesly, better known as the Duke of Wellington. Wellington never suspected his brother in law was such an idiot or he never would have sent him out. . .
