While researching "My Name is Pancho Villa, I Got the Gonorrhea", I discovered another song (ditty) about "Poncho" that has three or four tune variants and is also a recitation. The song starts off "My name is Pancho..." with variants to the name of "Paco", "Chico", and "Yon Yonson". Texts, transcriptions, and links to recordings provided below in the following posts. Any help identifying the tunes is appreciated. If you have any details on *your* version and when you learned the song-rhyme is appreciated. My name it is Pancho, I live on the rancho I make two dollars a day I go to see Lucy She give me some pussy And take my two dollars away. Aye, Aye, Aye-eye Fuck in the bedroom. My Name it is Pancho, I live on the rancho I make two dollars a day I go to see Nellie I bounce on her belly She take my two dollars away. Aye, Aye, Aye-eye Sigma's always eat pizza. "That's all I... That's a pretty frag... it went on the same for a while...got tired"
Transcribed from singing of "C.A." recorded July 12, 2005. He learned this in 1964 to 1968 while at university. https://archive.org/download/jack_horntip_collection_field_recordings/0009%20My%20Name%20It%20Is%20Pancho%2C%20I%20Live%20On%20A%20Rancho%20%5BPoncho%20Via%2C%20Two%20Verses%2C%20Has%20Aye%20Aye%20Aye%20Aye%20Chorus%2C%20Learned%201964-68%5D.mp3 As for the tune, I should know the one above but it escapes me now. The "eye, eye, eye-eye" is to "Cielito Lindo". But what about the other part? Any help identifying the tune is appreciated.
