Dave Matthews Band and Dave Matthews - Coretz,the killer (Live At Central Park) lyrics

rate me

Came dancing across the water

His galleons and guns

Looking for the new world

Palace in the sun

On the shore lay Montezuma

His coca leaves and pearls

In his halls he often wondered

The secrets of the worlds

And 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

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

They built up with their bare hands

What we still can't build today

And I know she's living there

She loves me to this day

And I can't still remember when

Or how I lost my way

Cortez, Cortez

He came dancing across the water

Cortez, Cortez

What a killer

Dancing across the water

Came dancing across the water

Cortez, Cortez

Dancing across the water (4x)

Cortez, Cortez

Dancing across the water (2x)

He came dancing across the water
