The conquistadors came with their sabres and guns[00:00:06]

And they raped and they slaughtered until they were done[00:00:10]

They hacked and they killed and left no one alive[00:00:14]

Then they brought in the slaves who they allowed to survive[00:00:17]

Welcome to the New World you could hear the men say[00:00:21]

As they sat on the shores of Guantanamo Bay[00:00:26]

And after four hundred years independence was short[00:00:30]

That's just how it is with a deep water port[00:00:39]

The battleships came and they never left shore[00:00:43]

Tasting the conquest they just wanted more[00:00:47]

The sign it said welcome to the US of A[00:00:50]

In the Republic of Cuba Guantanamo Bay[00:00:55]

Past the barbed wire fence and the field of mines[00:01:05]

You can see the men who left their families behind[00:01:08]

To burn 'neath the sun to be tortured and killed[00:01:12]

Where their stomaches are empty and their spirits are grilled[00:01:15]

If you're looking for freedom this is the price you must pay[00:01:19]

It's written in blood on Guantanamo Bay[00:01:25]

The vultures they circle at ease overhead[00:01:35]

The living may live and the dead will be dead[00:01:38]

The time it may come in this tropical heat[00:01:42]

That they'll have to go somewhere else to eat[00:01:45]

Maybe a storm will come wash it away[00:01:49]

But still the guard towers glitter on Guantanamo Bay[00:01:54]
