Karaoke Track: Last Resort by Eagles (Sunfly)

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&#39;

They spoke about
the red man&#39;s ways

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&#39;t wait to tell you all

what it&#39;s like up there

And they called it

paradise
I don&#39;t know why

Somebody laid
the mountains low

while the town
got high

Instrumental
24 seconds

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 &#39;em

Put up a bunch
of ugly boxes

and Jesus
people bought &#39;em

And they called it

paradise
the place to be

They watched

the hazy sun
sinking in the sea

Instrumental

1 minute
08 seconds

But we can leave it

all behind
and sail to Lahaina

Just like the

missionaries did
so many years ago

They even bought

a neon sign said
Jesus is coming

And brought the

white man&#39;s reign

And what is yours

and what is mine?

&#39;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 in the name of God

And you can see

them there
on Sunday morning

Stand up

and sing out loud
what it&#39;s like up there

They call it paradise

I don&#39;t know why

You call some place

paradise
kiss it goodbye
