Eagles - The Last Resort (2013 Remaster)(1976)

[00:08.32] She came from Providence
[00:12.29] One in Rhode Island
[00:16.04] Where the old world shadows hang
[00:19.95] Heavy in the air
[00:23.54] She packed her hopes and dreams
[00:27.48] Like a refugee
[00:31.33] Just as her father came across the sea
[00:40.52] She heard about a place
[00:44.74] People were smilin'
[00:48.00] They spoke about the red man's way
[00:51.98] And how they loved the land
[00:55.87] And they came from everywhere
[00:59.62] To the Great Divide
[01:03.43] Seeking a place to stand
[01:07.42] Or a place to hide
[01:13.11] Down in the crowded bars
[01:17.19] Out for a good time
[01:20.61] Can't wait to tell you all
[01:24.73] What it's like up there
[01:28.17] And they called it paradise
[01:32.05] I don't know why
[01:35.62] Somebody laid the mountains low
[01:39.72] While the town got high
[01:44.94]
[02:08.78] Then the chilly winds blew down
[02:12.70] Across the desert
[02:16.30] Through the canyons of the coast
[02:20.33] To the Malibu
[02:24.16] Where the pretty people play
[02:27.97] Hungry for power
[02:31.79] To light their neon way
[02:35.63] Give them things to do
[02:41.08] Some rich men came and raped the land
[02:45.08] Nobody caught 'em
[02:48.86] Put up a bunch of ugly boxes
[02:52.33] And Jesus people bought 'em
[02:56.33] And they called it paradise
[03:00.24] The place to be
[03:03.97] They watched the hazy sun
[03:07.75] Sinking in the sea
[03:11.22]
[04:21.39] You can leave it all behind
[04:24.98] Sail to Lahaina
[04:28.93] Just like the missionaries did
[04:32.66] So many years ago
[04:36.51] They even brought a neon sign
[04:40.67] "Jesus is coming"
[04:44.58] Brought the white man's burden down
[04:48.61] Brought the white man's reign
[04:52.37] Who will provide the grand design?
[04:56.10] What is yours and what is mine?
[04:59.95] 'Cause there is no more new frontier
[05:03.95] We have got to make it here
[05:07.45] We satisfy our endless needs
[05:11.37] And justify our bloody deeds
[05:15.17] In the name of destiny
[05:18.85] And in the name of God
[05:25.17] And you can see them there
[05:28.67] On Sunday morning
[05:32.28] Stand up and sing about
[05:36.03] What it's like up there
[05:40.03] They call it paradise
[05:43.08] I don't know why
[05:47.36] You call someplace paradise
[05:51.12] Kiss it goodbye
[06:07.87]
