"SANTIANNA" shanty.
(also known as "Santy Anna", "Santiano".

Oh, Santianna gain'd the day!
Away, Santianna!
Oh, Santiana gain'd the day!
All across the plains of Mexico!

He gained the day at Monterey,
Away Santiana!
An' General Taylor ran away.
All across the plains of Mexico!

Oh, Santianna fought for fame,
Away, Santianna!
And Santiana gained a name.
All across the plains of Mexico!

Oh, Santianna's men were brave,
Away, Santianna!
Many found a heroe's grave.
All across the plains of Mexico!

'Twas a fierce & bitter strife,
Away, Santianna!
Hand to hand they fought for life.
All across the plains of Mexico!

Oh, Santianna fought for his gold,
Away, Santianna!
What deeds he did have oft been told.
All across the plains of Mexico!

Now Santianna's dead and gone,
Away, Santianna!
And all the fighting has been done
All on the plains of Mexico!

We'll dig his grave with a silver spade,
Away, Santianna!
And mark the spot where he was laid.
All on the plains of Mexico

Now, Santianna we now must mourn,
Away, Santianna!
We buried him deep around Cape Horn.
All across the plains of Mexico!

Yes we buried him deep around Cape Horn
Away, Santianna!
Close to the spot where he was born.
All across the plains of Mexico!
