LyricMeaning

Long Road Out Of Eden
The Eagles

Moon shinin' down through the palms

Shadows movin' on the sand

Somebody whisperin' the twenty-third psalm

Dusty rifle in his tremblin' hands

Somebody tryin' just to stay alive

He got promises to keep

Over the ocean in America

Far away and fast asleep

Silent stars blinkin' in the blackness of an endless sky

Cold silver satellites, ghostly caravans passin' by

Galaxies unfoldin', new world's bein' born

Pilgrims and prodigals creepin' toward the dawn

And it's a long road out of Eden

Music blastin' from an SUV

On a bright and sunny day

Rollin' down the Interstate

In the good old USA

Havin' lunch at The Petroleum Club

Smokin' fine cigars and swappin' lives

He said, Give me another slice of that barbecued brisket

Give me another piece of that pecan pie

Freeways flickerin', cell phones chimin' a tune

We're ridin' to utopia, road map says we'll be arrivin' soon

Captains of the old order clingin' to the reins

Assurin' us these aches inside are only growin' pains

But it's a long road out of Eden

Back home, I was so certain the path was very clear

But now I have to wonder what are we doin' here'

I'm not countin' on tomorrow and I can't tell wrong from right

But I'd give anythin' to be there in your arms tonight

Weavin' down the American highway

Through the litter and the wreckage and the cultural junk

Bloated with entitlement, loaded on propaganda

Now we're drivin' dazed and drunk

Been down the road to Damascus, the road to Mandalay

Met the ghost of Caesar on the Appian way

He said, It's hard to stop this bingein' once you get a taste

But the road to empire is a bloody stupid waste

Behold the bitten apple, the power of the tools

But all the knowledge in the world is of no use to fools

And it's a long road out of Eden
