Does anyone have any information on the big bore rough riders?

I heard a song that the video credited as war pigs, but like line went generals gathered in their mountains instead of the usual version.​ I tried to Google it, but it just told me I was wrong, and it was only about 10 seconds of song. Maybe it's real, maybe I'm just going crazy. And, no it's not warplurgis, ​I already checked.

My multiple great-grandfather is Edmund Pickens, who was the last chief of the chickasaw nation. During the war he led the Chickasaw and Chocktaw mounted rifles from the southern controlled fort washita. When the war ended, the Yankee forces surrounded the the fort and threatened to kill them all if they didn't surrender. The white confederates​ ran away as the battles seemed lost, however the chickasaw tribe has a reputation of never surrendering even as far back as the expedition of Hernando De Soto when they had a brutal war which earned the the nickname "the spartans of the south." So they were no strangers to warfare so they called their bluff. Then the Yankees called in massive amounts of reinforcements that outnumbered the chickasaws 50-1. So when they threatened to march in in the morning and retake the fort​ the men saw only one way out. So under the cover of darkness they took all the supplies and set the fort on fire as the Yankees slept. When they woke up the next morning, they found the fort in ruins and everybody gone, so between the loss of that fort and fort Cobb, the went and built fort sill which is still in use to this day.
