Santy Anna
- O have you heard the latest news ?
Heave away ! Santy Anna !
The Yankees they took Vera Cruz.
All on the plains of Mexico ! - O Santy Anna fought for fame,
Heave away ! Santy Anna !
He fought for fame and gained his name
All on the plains of Mexico ! - Old Santy Anna had a wooden leg,
Heave away ! Santy Anna !
He used it for a wooden peg.
All on the plains of Mexico ! - Brave General Taylor gained the day,
Heave away! Santy Anna !
And Santy Anna ran away,
All on the plains of Mexico ! - O then we smashed them up and down;
Heave away ! Santy Anna !
We captured all the Mexican ground.
All on the plains of Mexico ! - The ladies there I do adore,
Heave away ! Santy Anna !
I always want to be ashore.
All on the plains of Mexico ! - You’ve loved me dear and you’ve taught me well,
Heave away ! Santy Anna !
I’d rather be here than frying in Hell,
Al1 on the plains of Mexico !
