To quote the song Battle for New Orleans >>Well cannon balls flew and the ship began to sink The water started risin' so we really had to think And then by chance stood a man as black as coal So we grabbed him by the trousers and we plugged him in the hole >>We fired our guns and the British kept a-comin' There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago We fired once more and they begin to runnin' On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico >>Mexico, Mexico, Mayheeco, Mecksiko
