Trudging through the mountains We're carrying the weight Of all the hopes and dreams That we'll take back to Spain There's rumours there o' fighting A house caught in divide We're following the rumours The silver will provide We're heading south to Cusco We're heading to the lake We're bringing lies and smallpox There's silver there to take A flag on every port town Maracaibo to Veracruz A Spanish land we're forging We're marching for Peru We were less than 200 But we are doing god's work Bringing light and promise Out to the new world We signed up for adventure We signed up for the cause We signed up for our king To conquer foreign shores We're heading south to Cusco We're heading to the lake We're bringing lies and smallpox There's silver there to take A flag on every port town Maracaibo to Veracruz A Spanish land we're forging We're marching for Peru We sent our man De Soto Equipped with finest steed To sell the king of Peru A book that he can't read We came with words of brotherhood We came with words of peace We came with horse and cannon We came to make them bleed We cried Santiago And charged against our foe We struck 2000 dead We landed a heavy blow Our leader was Pizarro Our leader was our King Our leader was our God And the riches he can bring We're heading south to Cusco We're heading to the lake We're bringing lies and smallpox There's silver there to take A flag on every port town Maracaibo to Veracruz A Spanish land we're forging We're marching for Peru We're heading south to Cusco We're heading to the lake We're bringing lies and smallpox There's silver there to take A flag on every port town Maracaibo to Veracruz A Spanish land we're forging We're marching for Peru
