Mexico, Mexico, Mexico
Mexico, Mexico
Mexico, Mexico, Mexico
Mexico, Mexico, Mexico
In 1840 they took a little trip
A line of guns where packin' them down the Mississippi
We took a little bacon and we took a little beans
And we went and fought the British in the town of New Orleans
We fired our guns and the British kept a-comin'
There wasn't as many as there was a while ago
We fire once more and then we started running
Right down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
Mexico, Mexico
Mexico, Mexico, Mexico
Now Pickenham said we could take 'em by surprise
So we didn't fire our muskets 'til we looked them in the eyes
We held our fire 'til we saw their faces well
Then we opened up our muskets, gonna real give them hell
We fired our guns and the British kept a-comin'
There wasn't as many as there was a while ago
We fire once more and then we started running
Right down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
Mexico, Mexico
Mexico, Mexico, Mexico
Mexico, Mexico, Mexico
Mexico, Mexico, Mexico (everybody sing)
Mexico (oh, oh-oh, oh, oh)
Mexico (oh, oh-oh, oh, oh)
Mexico (oh, oh-oh, oh, oh)
I said Me (Me) ex (ex) I.C.O
Mexico, Mexico, Mexico
Mexico, Mexico, Mexico
Well we get down fine 'til we see the British come
There must have been 100 of them beatin' on a drum
We heldour breath as we powdered up the gun
Then we sat around in circles and just waited for the fun
We fired our guns and the British kept a-comin'
There wasn't as many as there was a while ago
We fire once more and then we started running
Right down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
Mexico, Mexico
Mexico, Mexico, Mexico
Well they ran to the ... and they ran to the bramble
And they ran to the bushes where the rabbits couldn't go
They run so fast to house, I couldn't get 'em
Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
We fired our guns and the British kept a-comin'
There wasn't as many as there was a while ago
We fire once more and then we started running
Right down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
We fired our guns and the British kept a-comin'
There wasn't as many as there was a while ago
We fire once more and then we started running
Right down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
We fired our guns and the British kept a-comin'
There wasn't as many as there was a while ago
We fire once more and then we started running
Right down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
Mexico, Mexico
Mexico, Mexico, Mexico
Mexico, Mexico, Mexico
Mexico, Mexico, Mexico
We fired our guns and the British kept a-comin'
There wasn't as many as there was a while ago
We fire once more and then we started running
