Santayana

Santayana fought for Spain
    Heave away Santayana
He fought for Spain and he gained his name
    All on the plains of Mexico
    And it's heave her up and away we'll go
    Heave away Santayana
    Heave her up and away we'll go
    All on the plains of Mexico

Oh Santayana gained the day
And General Taylor he ran away

Oh General Taylor ran away
At Molly del Rey he gained his fame

When I was a young man in my prime
I'd kiss them pretty girls two at a time

But now I'm old and going grey
Oh rum's my sweetheart every day
