Vaquero's Song 1911 'Natoma'

James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 15 Jan 2004

Who dares the bronco wild defy?
Who looks the mustang in the eye?
Fearless and bold, their master behold!
Aié! With a leap from the ground,
to the saddle in a bound, and away!
And away! Aié! Aié! Aié!

See where the bull upon his knees
snorts when his neck we tighter squeeze;
Wild are his eyes!
Fiercely he dies!
Aié! Aié! Aié!

Vaqueros, devils to dare!
Vaqueros never a care!
Vacqueros, ready to fling
our glove in the ring,
mis amigos!
Far o'er the mesa we tear,
Reala high in the air!
Vaqueros, Kings of the Plain,
undaunted we reign!
Aié!

Vaqueros, devils to dare!
Vaqueros never a care!
Vacqueros, ready to fling
our glove in the ring,
mis amigos!
Far o'er the mesa we tear,
Reala high in the air!
Vaqueros, Kings of the Plain,
undaunted we reign!
Aié!
