When you’re violently scared to disrespect thee The one, the only, “Old Hickory” You toughen up And join the cause To defeat those who have broken Forbidden laws
He continued to recruit A group that he could steer Most of these fearless men Joined outta fear
We marched to New Orleans The odds are 1 to 3 But the British had disrespected Thee “Old Hickory”
We won that day After we set the sky ablaze It makes me really miss The “Old Hickory” days.
We started the march back to Tennessee We had plans To celebrate our victory Through a land Shrouded in mystery
We faced many trials On our journey home But never once Did we bicker or moan We made it through dangerous territory It was a sight to see By the leadership Of “Old Hickory”
