(DON HENLEY, GLENN FREY & TIMOTHY B. SCHMIT)

MOON SHINING DOWN THROUGH THE PALMS
SHADOWS MOVING ON THE SAND
SOMEBODY WHISPERING THE TWENTY-THIRD PSALM
DUSTY RIFLE IN HIS TREMBLING HANDS
SOMEBODY TRYING JUST TO STAY ALIVE
HE GOT PROMISES TO KEEP
OVER THE OCEAN IN AMERICA
FAR WAY AND FAST ASLEEP

SILENT STARS BLINKING IN THE BLACKNESS OF AN ENDLESS SKY
COLD SILVER SATELLITES, GHOSTLY CARAVANS PASSING BY
GALAXIES UNFOLDING; NEW WORLDS BEING BORN
PILGRIMS AND PRODIGALS CREEPING TOWARD THE DAWN
BUT IT'S A LONG ROAD OUT OF EDEN

MUSIC BLASTING FROM AN SUV
ON A BRIGHT AND SUNNY DAY
ROLLING DOWN THE INTERSTATE
IN THE GOOD OL' USA
HAVING LUNCH AT THE PETROLEUM CLUB
SMOKIN' FINE CIGARS AND SWAPPIN' LIES
