Текст песни Santy Anna

Oh have you heard the latest news:
Chorus: Heave away, Santy Anna
The Yankees they took Vera Cruz.
Chorus: All on the plains of Mexico.

Oh, Santy Anna fought for fame.
He fought for fame and gained his name.

Oh, Santy Anna had a wooden leg:
He used it for a wooden peg.
Burl Ives - Santy Anna - http://ru.motolyrics.com/burl-ives/santy-anna-lyrics.html
Brave General Taylor gained the day
And Santy Anna run away.

Ah, then we smashed them up and down.
We captured all of that Mexican ground.

The ladies there I do adore:
I always want to be ashore.

You've loved me, dear, and you've taught me well
I'd rather be here than fryin' in Hell.
