Santiano from Pirates' Gold by The Jolly Rogers

Satiano gained the day
Away! Santiano!
Satiano gained the day
Along the plains of Mexico...
Mexico, oh Mexico
Away! Satiano!
Mexico is a place I know
Along the plains of Mexico...
Those yella galls I do adore
Away! Santiano!
With their shinin‟ eyes and their coal-black hair
Along the plains of Mexico...
Those yella galls they love me so
Away! Santiano!
Because I won‟t tell them all I know
Along the plains of Mexico...
Those Liverpool galls don‟t use no comb
Away! Santiano!
They comb their hair with a kipper backbone
Along the plains of Mexico...
When I was a young lad in me prime
Away! Santiano!
I knocked them scouse girls 5 at a time
Along the plains of Mexico...
The time‟s is hard and the wage is low
Away! Santiano!
It‟s time for us to roll and go
Along the plains of Mexico...
