In the 1814 we took a little trip
Well Old Hickory said we could take 'em by surprise
Well we fired our guns but the British kept 'a comin' |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: TAKE A LITTLE TRIP??! From: SeanM Date: 04 Jan 01 - 07:39 PM Sounds like "The Battle of New Orleans". Here's an older thread about the song, with more info than you'll probably ever want to know. I believe the lyrics are fairly aggressively defended by copyright lawyers, but this is a start. M |
