Persecución de Villa(original) |
| Nuestro México, febrero veintitrés |
| Dejo Carranza pasar americanos |
| Dos mil soldados trescientos aeroplanos |
| Buscando a villa por todo el país |
| Comenzaron a echar expediciones |
| Los aeroplanos comenzaron a volar |
| Por distintas y varias direcciones |
| Buscando a Villa queriéndolo matar |
| Los soldados que vinieron desde Tejas |
| A Pancho Villa no podían encontrar |
| Ya fatigados de ocho horas de camino |
| Los pobres se querían regresar |
| Los de a caballo no se podían sentados |
| Y los de a pie no podían caminar |
| Entonces Villa les pasa en su aeroplano |
| Y desde arriba les grita «Goodbye» |
| Empezaron a lanzar sus aeroplanos |
| Entonces Villa, un buen plan les preparo: |
| Se vistió de soldado americano |
| Y a sus tropas también las transformó |
| Nuestro México, febrero veintitrés |
| Dejo Carranza pasar americanos |
| Dos mil soldados trescientos aeroplanos |
| Buscando a villa por todo el país |
| (translation) |
| Our Mexico, February twenty-three |
| I let Carranza pass Americans |
| Two thousand soldiers three hundred airplanes |
| Looking for villa all over the country |
| They began to launch expeditions |
| airplanes began to fly |
| In different and various directions |
| Looking for Villa wanting to kill him |
| The soldiers who came from Texas |
| They couldn't find Pancho Villa |
| Already tired from eight hours of walking |
| The poor wanted to return |
| Those on horseback could not be seated |
| And those on foot could not walk |
| Then Villa passes them in his airplane |
| And from above he yells "Goodbye" at them |
| They began to launch their airplanes |
| So Villa, I prepared a good plan for them: |
| He dressed as an American soldier |
| And his troops he also transformed |
| Our Mexico, February twenty-three |
| I let Carranza pass Americans |
| Two thousand soldiers three hundred airplanes |
| Looking for villa all over the country |
