Cortez The Killer


[ Neil Young & Crazy Horse ]

He came dancing across the water
With his galleons and guns
Looking for the new world
And that palace in the Sun

On the shore lay Montezuma
With his coca leaves and pearls
In his halls, he often wandered
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
People worked together
And they lifted many stones

And they carried them to the flatlands
But they died along the way
And 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

He came dancing across the water
Cortez, Cortez
What a killer

He came dancing across the water
Cortez, Cortez
What a killer

He came dancing across the water
Dancing across the water
