Tim Mooney - Salvador Sanchez lyrics

Salvador Sanchez arrived and vanished Only twenty-three with so much speed Ownin' the highway Mexico City bred so many But none quite like him sweet warrior Pure magic matador Pancho Villa would never rest ‘Til 1925 he closed his eyes Two Manila stars would rise Ghosts of the Phillipines, choirs and angels sing Ukelele strings play for his legend Iloilo king How have they gone Felled by leather So alone but Bound together Benny “Kid” Paret came a good way Climbed to the grey sky to lift his hands Stopped by the better man Eyes of Las Villas cry for sons Lost on distant shores, unforeseen horrors Struck and delivered him (Chorus x 2)
