They came 500 years ago The spoke of old in mexico
Killing people one by one Only talking with their guns
They put them in iron chains All young mothers sold as slaves
Babies brying through their mouth Will they ever see the light
Cold and dreams are in Eldorado
I have drowned in seas of red and black
Gold and dreams are in Eldorado
May come true but only in your heart
Shout and your hands will be free And he shall live in liberty
Oh will mankind ever learn Shall they hold to iron burn
In the history of man The search for happiness has never ended
But if the gates of eden were ever closed
Those conquistdors who are only hungry for gold
Because the real Eldorado isn't made of diamond or gold
But by peace and understanding The hearts of everyone
