neil young and crazy horse - cortez the killer lyrics

[verse]
he came dancing across the water
with his galleons and guns
looking for the new world
and that palace in the sun
on the sh0r- lay montezuma
with his coca leaves and pearls
in his halls, he often wondered
with the secrets of the world
and his subjects
gathered around him
like the leaves around a tree
in their clothes of many colors
for the angry gods to see
and the women all were beautiful
and the men stood
straight and strong
they offered life in sacrifice
so that others could go on
hate was just a legend
and war was never known
the people worked together
and they lifted many stones
they carried them
to the flatlands
and they died along the way
but they built up
with their bare hands
what we still can’t do today
and i know she’s living there
and she loves me to this day
i still can’t remember when
or how i lost my way

[outro]
he came dancing across the water
cortez, cortez
what a k!ller
