Santy Anna
O Santy Anna gained the day Hoo-ray, Santy Anna!
He lost it once but gained it twice All on the plains of Mexico!O Santy Anna fought for fame
And that's where Santy gained his name.O Santy Anna fought for gold
And the deeds he done have oft been told.
And Santy Anna fought for his life
But he gained his way in a terrible strife.O Santy Anna's day is o'er
And Santy Anna will fight no more.I thought I heard the old man say
He'd give us grog this very day.
From Colcord-
Songs of American Sailormen. Recorded by Lloyd and Mac
Coll. Reportedly, the last whaler to return to New Bedford hauled into dock to this shanty.filename
