San Patricios

歌詞

Two hundred Irish go into Mexico To fight a battle of manifest destiny Driven by their Catholic conscience They chose to rise and do what's right Joined up with the natives for the fight Confused then torn by aggression Born against a sovereign land El Battalion, El Battalion de San Patricios El Battalion, El Battalion de San Patricios Sick and tired of the anglo abuse of might And of following orders from a bent U.S. regime They joined ranks with the Mexican army Red headed ones led by Johny riley When you stand behind your principles You never lose Confused then torn by aggression Born against a sovereign land El Battalion, El Battalion de San Patricios El Battalion, El Battalion de San Patricios Fight with Riley fierce and wild Mirar aqui Rudy Churubusco de el 72 No queridos en la corte marcial 50 colgados, 16 madriados Portrados como trydores Grito para ellos, grito para todos Parados nunca calleron So we celebrate Irish and Mexican unity It was forged with blood during manifest destiny Confused then torn by aggression Born against a sovereign land El Battalion, El Battalion de San Patricios El Battalion, El Battalion de San Patricios Led by Riley fierce and wild They paid highest price El Battalion, El Battalion de San Patricios El Battalion, El Battalion de San Patricios
