Durham Lockout
in our Durham county I am sorry for to say
that hunger and starvation is increasing every day
for the want of food and coals we know not what to do
but with your kind assistance we will stand the struggle through
I need not state the reason why we have been brought so low
The masters have behaved unkind as everyone well know
Because we won't lie down and let them treat us as they like
to punish us they've stopped their pits and caused the present
strike
the pulley wheels have ceased to move which went swift around
the horses and the ponies too are brought from underground
our work is taken from us now: they care not if we die
for they can eat the best of food and drink the best when dry ...

a los dos años ya hablaba inglés
mató a dos hombres a la edad de tres
Pancho Pancho López
chiquito pero matón ...
Pancho Pancho López se fue a la revolución
aquí la historia se terminó porque a los nueve Pancho murió
y el consejo de la historia es -- no vivas la vida con tanta rapidez ...
Born in Chihuahua in 1906 in a package under a cypress tree
at age two he already spoke English
killed two men at the age of three
Pancho Pancho Lopez
tiny but useful ...
Pancho, Pancho Lopez went to the revolution
here the story ends because at nine Pancho died
and the moral of the story is: don't live life so quickly ...
There's an English version with a somewhat surprisingly stereotyped character
