With his galleons and guns
Looking for the new world
And the 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 ‘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
And they carried them to the flat lands
But they died along the way
And they build 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
-Neil Young
Goin’ down, goin’ down
Gonna find another way
Goin’ down, goin’ down
As my old man would say
Gotta shake that ball and chain
Gotta turn the wheels and go
Goin’ down, goin’ down
Gonna hear the music play
Gonna leave it on the floor
Gonna dance these blues away
When the good ol’ boys start pickin’
Gonna turn the night to the day
Going down to the Rockdale
Gonna lay it all down for you
Leave your coat at the hotel
We’ll be hanging in the old barroom
Lock the doors, feed the hounds
We’ll be at least a day or two
Grab the bottle, make my rounds
‘Till there’s nothing left to do
The glass jar with the money
Honey how ‘bout dancing shoes?
Going down to the Rockdale
Gonna lay it all down for you
Leave your coat at the hotel
We’ll be hanging in the old barroom
Going down to the Rockdale
Gonna lay it all down for you
Leave your coat at the hotel
We’ll be hanging in the old barroom
I don’t know if we’ll ever go home again
The open road’s got me thinking like a different man
Fifteen miles to the places we might go
So I’ll lend my ears to the wind
Going down to the Rockdale
Gonna lay it all down for you
Leave your coat at the hotel
We’ll be hanging in the old barroom
Going down to the Rockdale
Gonna lay it all down for you
One night to live for
And the sun will be rising soon
