The Chieftains, Mariachi Santa Fe de Jesus (Chuy) Guzman
Nuestro México, febrero veintitrés
Dejo Carranza pasar americanos
Dos mil soldados trescientos aeroplanos
Buscando a villa por todo el país
Comenzaron a echar expediciones
Los aeroplanos comenzaron a volar
Por distintas y varias direcciones
Buscando a Villa queriéndolo matar
Los soldados que vinieron desde Tejas
A Pancho Villa no podían encontrar
Ya fatigados de ocho horas de camino
Los pobres se querían regresar
Los de a caballo no se podían sentados
Y los de a pie no podían caminar
Entonces Villa les pasa en su aeroplano
Y desde arriba les grita «Goodbye»
Empezaron a lanzar sus aeroplanos
Entonces Villa, un buen plan les preparo:
Se vistió de soldado americano
Y a sus tropas también las transformó
Nuestro México, febrero veintitrés
Dejo Carranza pasar americanos
Dos mil soldados trescientos aeroplanos
Buscando a villa por todo el país
Our Mexico, February twenty-three
I let Carranza pass Americans
Two thousand soldiers three hundred airplanes
Looking for villa all over the country
They began to launch expeditions
airplanes began to fly
In different and various directions
Looking for Villa wanting to kill him
The soldiers who came from Texas
They couldn't find Pancho Villa
Already tired from eight hours of walking
The poor wanted to return
Those on horseback could not be seated
And those on foot could not walk
Then Villa passes them in his airplane
And from above he yells "Goodbye" at them
They began to launch their airplanes
So Villa, I prepared a good plan for them:
He dressed as an American soldier
And his troops he also transformed
Our Mexico, February twenty-three
I let Carranza pass Americans
Two thousand soldiers three hundred airplanes
Looking for villa all over the country
