San Patricios |
| Two hundred Irish go into Mexico |
| To fight a battle of manifest destiny |
| Driven by their Catholic conscience |
| They chose to rise and do what’s right |
| Joined up with the natives for the fight |
| Confused then torn by aggression |
| Born against a sovereign land |
| El Battalion, El Battalion de San Patricios |
| El Battalion, El Battalion de San Patricios |
| Sick and tired of the anglo abuse of might |
| And of following orders from a bent U.S. regime |
| They joined ranks with the Mexican army |
| Red headed ones led by Johny riley |
| When you stand behind your principles |
| You never lose |
| Confused then torn by aggression |
| Born against a sovereign land |
| El Battalion, El Battalion de San Patricios |
| El Battalion, El Battalion de San Patricios |
| Fight with Riley fierce and wild |
| Mirar aqui Rudy |
| Churubusco de el 72 |
| No queridos en la corte marcial |
| 50 colgados, 16 madriados |
| Portrados como trydores |
| Grito para ellos, grito para todos |
| Parados nunca calleron |
| So we celebrate Irish and Mexican unity |
| It was forged with blood during manifest destiny |
| Confused then torn by aggression |
| Born against a sovereign land |
| El Battalion, El Battalion de San Patricios |
| El Battalion, El Battalion de San Patricios |
| Led by Riley fierce and wild |
| They paid highest price |
| El Battalion, El Battalion de San Patricios |
| El Battalion, El Battalion de San Patricios |
