Salvador Sanchez

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Salvador Sanchez arrived and vanished Only twenty-three with so much speed Ownin' the highway [Verse 2] Mexico City bred so many But none quite like him, sweet warrior Pure magic matador [Verse 3] Pancho Villa would never rest Till 1925 he closed his eyes Two Manila stars would rise [Verse 4] Ghosts of the Philippines Choirs and angels sing Ukulele strings play for his legend Iloilo king [Chorus] How have they gone Felled by leather So alone but Bound together [Verse 5] Benny "Kid" Paret came a good way Climbed to the grey sky to raise his hands Stopped by the better man [Verse 6] Eyes of Las Villas cry for sons Lost on distant shores, unforeseen horrors Struck and delivered him [Chorus] How have they gone Felled by leather So alone but Bound together [Chorus] How have they gone Felled by leather So alone but Bound together
