Eagles - The Last Resort
She came from Providence
the one in Rhode Island
Where the old world
shadows hang heavy in the air
She packed her hopes
and dreams like a refugee
Just as her father
came across the sea
She heard about
a place people were smilin'
They spoke about
the red man's way
and how they loved the land
And they came from everywhere
to the Great Divide
Seeking a place to stand
or a place to hide
Down in the crowded bars
out for a good time
Can't wait to tell you all
what it's like up there
And they called it paradise
I don't know why
Somebody laid the mountains low
while the town got high
Then the chilly winds blew down
Across the desert
through the canyons
of the coast to the Malibu
Where the pretty people play
hungry for power
to light their neon way
and give them things to do
Some rich men came
and raped the land
Nobody caught 'em
Put up a bunch
of ugly boxes and Jesus
people bought 'em
And they called it paradise
The place to be
They watched the hazy sun
sinking in the sea
You can leave it all behind
and sail to Lahaina
just like the missionaries did
so many years ago
They even brought a neon sign
Jesus is coming
Brought the white man's
burden down
Brought the white man's reign
Who will provide the grand design
What is yours and what is mine
'Cause there is
no more new frontier
We have got to make it here
We satisfy our endless needs and
justify our bloody deeds
in the name of destiny
and the name of God
And you can see them there
On Sunday morning
They stand up and sing about
what it's like up there
They call it paradise
I don't know why
You call someplace paradise
kiss it goodbye
