Well, my name is Patrick O'Connor
And I lie here on Mexican ground
And I know that Im merely a gunner
Other church bells far off it resounds.
Treated like dogs, by our all US regiments
The bigger tree we could not stand.
We ran and we joined with the Mexican army,
We got respect and we even got land.
St Patrick's brave brigade
All Mexico still honors their names.
The San Patricios green boarder
Rushes over aligned gringos.
Well, I fought with distinction for both sides
For its hard to fight for men who hates
Face your country, your faith and create lies
To keep monkeys like Mic in their place.
Thought that my life, there was so...
While a doctor with eyes cold and blue.
Early next morning got a ...
Dont strung me up by my neck,
And my last thought was you!
St Patrick's brave brigade
All Mexico still honors their names.
The San Patricios green boarder
Rushes over aligned gringos.
St Patricks brave brigade
St Patricks brave brigade
The San Patricio honored in all Mexico
And I lie here on Mexican ground
And I know that Im merely a gunner
Other church bells far off it resounds.
Treated like dogs, by our all US regiments

We ran and we joined with the Mexican army,
We got respect and we even got land.
