1916, Villa’s Division’s on the run
He and his troops retreat up to the mountains
Every man wants to fight in the revolucion
Til his body’s shipped to his Mama back home
General Carranza’s taken up the presidency
America supports him, despite his illegitimacy
Mexico’s losing its last bit of liberty
Pancho’s gettin’ angry, time to start some anarchy
He’s taking his troops across the U.S. border
He’s into New Mexico time to cause disorder
Strike back against America, getting his revancha
A legendary bandit, they call him Cucaracha
The people start to flee when they hear that sound
Columbus en fuego, burning to the ground
They try to fight back, sendin’ out a brigadier
But he ain’t no match for Pancho’s
Bandolier, Bandolera
Run in fear, Run in terror (ter-rah)
Bandolier, Bandolera
Run in fear, Run in terror (ter-rah)
Bandolier, Bandolera
Run in fear, Run in terror (ter-rah)
Bandolier, Bandolera
Run in fear, Run in terror (ter-rah)
