[00:00.000]	作曲 : A. E. Blackmar, Patrick S. Gilmore
[00:16.376]	We all went down to New Orleans,
[00:18.194]	For Bales, for Bales;
[00:20.152]	We all went down to New Orleans,
[00:22.199]	For Bales, says I;
[00:24.156]	We all went down to New Orleans,
[00:26.204]	To get a peep behind the scenes,
[00:28.257]	"And we'll all drink stone blind,
[00:30.306]	Johnny fill up the bowl".
[00:32.358]	We thought when we got in the "Ring",
[00:34.314]	For Bales, for Bales;
[00:36.322]	We thought when we got in the "Ring",
[00:38.280]	For Bales, says I;
[00:40.295]	We thought when we got in the "Ring",
[00:42.285]	Greenbacks would be a dead sure thing,
[00:44.284]	"And we'll all drink stone blind,
[00:46.431]	Johnny fill up the bowl".
[01:04.322]	The "ring" went up, with bagging and rope,“
[01:06.327]	For Bales, for Bales;
[01:08.424]	Upon the "Black Hawk" with bagging and rope,
[01:10.385]	For Bales, says I;
[01:12.340]	Went up "Red River" with bagging and rope,
[01:14.306]	Expecting to make a pile of "soap",
[01:16.270]	"And we'll all drink stone blind,
[01:18.461]	Johnny fill up the bowl".
[01:20.428]	But Taylor and Smith, with ragged ranks,
[01:22.341]	For Bales, for Bales;
[01:24.348]	But Taylor and Smith, with ragged ranks,
[01:26.592]	For Bales, says I;
[01:28.409]	But Taylor and Smith, with ragged ranks,
[01:30.370]	Burned up the cotton and whipped old Banks,
[01:32.370]	"And we'll all drink stone blind,
[01:34.562]	Johnny fill up the bowl".
[01:52.418]	Our "ring" came back and cursed and swore,
[01:54.468]	For Bales, for Bales;
[01:56.471]	Our "ring" came back and cursed and swore,
[01:58.472]	For Bales, says I;
[02:00.427]	Our "ring" came back and cursed and swore,
[02:02.525]	For we got no cotton at Grand Ecore,
[02:04.396]	"And we'll all drink stone blind,
[02:06.631]	Johnny fill up the bowl".
[02:08.589]	Now let us all give praise and thanks,
[02:10.503]	For Bales, for Bales;
[02:12.509]	Now let us all give praise and thanks,
[02:14.519]	For Bales, says I;
[02:16.475]	Now let us all give praise and thanks,
[02:18.441]	For the victory gained by General Banks,
[02:20.306]	"And we'll all drink stone blind,
[02:22.696]	Johnny fill up the bowl".
