Just kinda had a wild hair or what? I heard it on the radio station I was listening to and since it was about the British (and I had had a couple of cold ones) I thought of Phil. Since it's called The Battle of New Orleans, you're lucky I didn't think of a certain coon azz.  |

Oh, it’s a classic. I think it was performed at my grade school in Mobile by third graders in the 70s. Very catchy.

Well Phil you could start with, Johnny didn't exactly nail the uniform of the day for the Battle of New Orleans!....lol
I was 7 years old when that song came out, and being from south Louisiana, I loved it. My brother and I would march around the house singing just the refrain over and over until our mother told us to zip it!
You don't have to take that crabs. I've got your back!

I was about the same age when my parents bought the album. It's been one of my favorite songs and been on every playlist I've made since...along with Sink the Bismark, North to Alaska and Johnny Reb. What's wrong with his uniform? They didn't wear cut off shorts, white socks, flip flops and LSU tee shirts in 1814. Bazinga!  I surrender.  |

Didn't mean you mate, the song said they did or "ran away".
Just having a laugh.

You got me there Juan. I had no idea the Cajun Navy went all the way back to WWII.
Like Shakespeare said, “The better part of valour, is discretion; in the which better part, I have saved my life”.
