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