Veracruz |
I heard Woodrow Wilson’s guns |
I heard Maria crying |
Late last night I heard the news |
That Veracruz was dying |
Veracruz was dying |
Someone called Maria’s name |
I swear it was my father’s voice |
Saying, If you stay you’ll all be slain |
You must leave now |
You have no choice |
Take the servants and ride west |
Keep the child close to your chest |
When the American troops withdraw |
Let Zapata take the rest |
I heard Woodrow Wilson’s guns |
I heard Maria calling |
Veracruz is dying |
And Cuernavaca’s fallen |
Aquel día yo jure |
Hacia el puerto volveré |
Aunque el destino cambio mi vida |
En Veracruz moriré |
Aquel día yo jure |
I heard Woodrow Wilson’s guns |
I heard them in the harbor |
Saying Veracruz was dying |
