Gerard	Lyr Req: Heave Away Santiana / Aweigh Santy Ano (72* d)	Lyr Add: SANTY ANNA (from Burl Ives)	25 Jul 03
Here is a version of "SANTY ANNA" from Burl Ives' Song in America; our musical heritage. 1962 "Oh have you heard the latest news? Heave away, Santy Anna! The Yankees, they took Vera Cruz, All along the plains of Mexico" "Oh Santy Anna fought for fame, Heave away, Santy Anna! He fought for fame and gained his name All along the plains of Mexico" "Oh Santy Anna had a wooden leg, Heave away, Santy Anna! He used it for a wooden peg, All along the plains of Mexico." "Bold Gen'ral Taylor gained the day, Heave away, Santy Anna! And Santy Anna ran away, All along the plains of Mexico." "Oh then we smashed them up and down, Heave away, Santy Anna! And took all of that Mexican ground, All along the plains of Mexico." "The Mexican maidens I do adore, Heave away, Santy Anna! I always want to be ashore, All along the plains of Mexico." Note: This is written from memory, there may be a few small differences in Ives' actual version.
