8. Santy Anna

[Listen]

1. Oh Santy Anna won the day.
Way-Ah, me Santy Anna.
Oh Santy Anna won the day.
All on the plains of Mexico.

2. He beat the Prooshans fairly. Way-Ah, etc.
And whacked the British nearly. All on, etc.

3. He was a rorty gineral;
A rorty snorty gineral.

4. They took him out and shöt him.
Oh when shall we forgët him.

5. Oh Santy Anna won the day
And Gin'ral Taylor run away.
