Johnny Horton's, "The Battle Of New Orleans"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
In 1814 we took a little trip
Along with Colonel Jackson down the mighty Mississip'
We took a little bacon and we took a little beans
And we caught the bloody British in the town of New Orleans
Along with Colonel Jackson down the mighty Mississip'
We took a little bacon and we took a little beans
And we caught the bloody British in the town of New Orleans
Why They're Nonsensical:
The Battle of New Orleans occurred in 1815, not 1814. Also, this song came out in 1959, so the singer could not have been alive in 1814 or 1815.
