Burl Ives — Santy Anna

Oh have you heard the latest news Heave away, Santy Anna The Yankees they took Vera Cruz All on the plains of Mexico Oh, Santy Anna fought for fame Heave away, Santy Anna He fought for fame and gained his name All on the plains of Mexico Oh, 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 run away All on the plains of Mexico Ah, then we smashеd them up and down Heave away, Santy Anna Wе captured all of that 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 taught me well Heave away, Santy Anna I'd rather be here than frying in hell All on the plains of Mexico
