Vera Cruz (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

I heard Woodrow Wilson’s guns
I heard Maria crying
Late last night I heard the news
That Veracruz was dying
Veracruz was dying

Someone called Maria’s name
I swear it was my father’s voice
Saying, “If you stay you’ll all be slain
You must leave now – you have no choice
Take the servants and ride west
Keep the child close to your chest
When the American troops withdraw
Let Zapata take the rest”

I heard Woodrow Wilson’s guns
I heard Maria calling
Saying, “Veracruz is dying
And Cuernavaca’s falling”

Aquel dia yo jure (On that day I swore
Hacia el puerto volvere To the port I will return
Aunque el destino cambio mi vida Even though destiny changed my life
En Veracruz morire In Veracruz I shall die
Aquel dia yo jure On that day I swore)

I heard Woodrow Wilson’s guns
I heard them in the harbor
Saying, “Veracruz is dying”

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Come on, baby, don’t you wanna go
Way down south, talkin’ ¡®bout mexico

Straight through the jungle, out to the sea
We’ll have some fun if you fly away with me
Like some old movie in black and white
We’ll fall in love in the middle of the night

Chorus:
Me and you, down in veracruz
Do what you wanna do, down in veracruz

Come on, baby, don’t you wanna come
In the town, people movin’ to the drums

Rosa’s cantina, it never stops
Drinkin’ cerveza, people party ¡®til they drop
Forget the laundry, forget the rain
We’ll get to heaven on the seven-thirty plane

Chorus 2x
