Neil Young And Crazy Horse - Cortez The Killer Lyrics

Send "Cortez The Killer" ringtone to your cell

He came dancin' across the water

With his galleons and guns

Looking for the new world

In 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 worlds

His subjects gathered 'round 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

Men stood straight and strong

They offered life in sacrifice

So others could go on

Hate was just a legend

War was never known

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 how

Or where I lost my way

He came dancin' across the water

Cortez Cortez what a killer

Yeah dancin' across the water

Cortez Cortez what a killer killer

Yeah dancin' across the water

Cortez Cortez what a killer
