Eagles (1972)
Don't let the sound of your own wheels drive you crazy. Lighten up while you still can, Don't even try to understand Just find a place to make your stand, and take it easy.
 * Take It easy, take it easy
 * "Take It Easy", written by Jackson Browne and Glenn Frey

Sparks fly from her finger tips. Echoed voices in the night She's a restless spirit on an endless flight. Wooo hooo witchy woman, see how high she flies. Woo hoo witchy woman she got the moon in her eyes.
 * Raven hair and ruby lips
 * "Witchy Woman", written by Don Henley and Bernie Leadon

What a woman can do to your soul. Ah, but she can't take you anyway You don't already know how to go I get a Peaceful Easy Feeling And I know you won't let me down Because I'm already standing On the ground.
 * And I found out a long time ago
 * "Peaceful Easy Feeling", written by Jack Tempchin

Desperado (1973)
Starin' slowly 'cross the sky, said goodbye He was just a hired hand Workin' on the dreams he planned to try The days go by.
 * It's another tequila sunrise
 * "Tequila Sunrise", written by Henley & Frey

She'll beat you if she's able. You know the queen of hearts is always your best bet.
 * Don't you draw the queen of diamonds, boy
 * "Desperado", written by Henley & Frey

Your pain and your hunger, they're drivin' you home. And freedom, oh freedom well, that's just some people talkin' Your prison is walking through this world all alone.
 * Desperado, oh, you ain't gettin' no younger.
 * "Desperado"

On the Border (1974)
And they said you were gonna put me on a shelf. But let me tell you I got some news for you, And you'll soon find out it's true. And then you'll have to eat your lunch all by yourself. 'Cause I'm already gone And I'm feelin' strong. I will sing this vict'ry song.
 * Well, I heard some people talkin' just the other day
 * "Already Gone", written by Jack Tempchin and Robb Strandlund

But I guess you felt like you had to set things right, Just remember this, my girl, when you look up in the sky, You can see the stars and still not see the light (that's right).
 * The letter that you wrote me made me stop and wonder why.
 * "Already Gone"

I know just what you mean. James Dean, you said it all so clean. And I know my life would look alright If I could see it on the silver screen.
 * James Dean, James Dean
 * "James Dean", written by Browne, Frey, J.D. Souther, Henley

Holdin' you close in my dreams Thinkin' about all the things that we said And comin' apart at the seams We try to talk it over But the words come out too rough I know you were tryin' To give me the best of your love.
 * Every night I'm lyin' in bed
 * "Best of My Love", written by Henley, Frey, Souther

One of These Nights (1975)
One of these crazy old nights We're gonna find out Pretty mama What turns on your lights. The full moon is calling, The fever is high, And the wicked wind whispers And moans. You got your demons You got desires Well, I got a few of my own.
 * One of these nights
 * "One of These Nights", written by Henley & Frey

Of the devil himself I've been searching for an angel in white. I've been waiting for a woman who's a little Of both And I can feel her but she's nowhere In sight.
 * I've been searching for the daughter
 * "One of These Nights"

I guess every form of refuge has its price. And it breaks her heart to think her love is Only given to a man with hands as cold as ice.
 * Late at night a big old house gets lonely.
 * "Lyin' Eyes", written by Henley & Frey

And your smile is a thin disguise I thought by now you'd realize There ain't no way to hide your lyin' eyes.
 * You can't hide your lyin' eyes
 * "Lyin' Eyes"

(Spent my life running 'round) And it's so hard to change. (Can't seem to settle down) But the dreams I've seen lately Keep on turning out and burning out And turning out the same. So put me on a highway And show me a sign And take it to the limit one more time.
 * You know I've always been a dreamer
 * "Take It to the Limit", written by Meisner, Henley, Frey

And you're feeling cold and small. Any kind of love without passion, That ain't no kind of loving at all, well Same dances in the same old shoes, You get too careful with the steps you choose. You don't care about winning but you don't want to lose.
 * You're afraid you might fall out of fashion,
 * "After the Thrill is Gone", written by Henley, Frey

Hotel California (1976)
Warm smell of colitas, rising up through the air Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim I had to stop for the night There she stood in the doorway; I heard the mission bell. And I was thinking to myself, 'This could be Heaven or this could be Hell. But then she lit up a candle And then she showed me the way. I heard voices down the corridor I thought I heard them say
 * On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair
 * "Hotel California", written by Felder, Henley, Frey

Such a lovely place (Such a lovely place) Such a lovely face. Plenty of room at the Hotel California Any time of year (Any time of year) You can find it here.
 * Welcome to the Hotel California.
 * "Hotel California"

She got the Mercedes Bends She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys That she calls "Friends" How they dance in the courtyard Sweet, summer sweat Some dance to remember Some dance to forget So, I called up the Captain "Please, bring me my wine," and he said "We haven't had that Spirit here since 1969" And still those voices are calling from far away Wake you up in the middle of the night Just to hear them say
 * Her Mind is Tiffany-twisted
 * "Hotel California"

Such a lovely place (Such a lovely place) Such a lovely face They're living it up at the Hotel California What a nice surprise (What a nice surprise) Bring your alibis
 * Welcome to the Hotel California.
 * "Hotel California"

The pink champagne on ice And she said 'We are all just prisoners here, of our own device' And in the master's chambers, They gathered for the feast They stab it with their steely knives, But they just can't kill the beast.
 * Mirrors on the ceiling,
 * "Hotel California"

Running for the door. I had to find the passage back To the place I was before. "Relax," said the night man, "We are programmed to receive. You can check-out any time you like, but you can never leave!"
 * Last thing I remember, I was
 * "Hotel California"

Will she still love you when you're not around? There's so many things you should have told her, but night after night you're willing to hold her, Just hold her, tears on your shoulder.
 * Johnny come lately, the new kid in town
 * "New Kid in Town", written by Souther, Henley, Frey

He was brutally handsome, and she was terminally pretty She held him up, and he held her for ransom In the heart of the cold, cold city. He had a nasty reputation as a cruel dude They said he was ruthless, they said he was crude. They had one thing in common, they were good in bed. She'd say, 'Faster, faster. The lights are turnin' red.
 * He was a hard-headed man
 * "Life in the Fast Lane", written by Walsh, Henley, Frey

Surely make you lose your mind Life in the fast lane Uh-Huh (Are you with me so far?)
 * Life in the fast lane,
 * "Life in the Fast Lane"

Hot for the game The coming attraction The drop of a name They knew all the right people They took all the right pills They threw outrageous parties They paid heavily bills There were lines on the mirror Lines on her face She pretended not to notice She was caught up in the race Out every evening until it was light<He was too tired to make it She was too tired to fight about it
 * Eager for action
 * "Life in the Fast Lane"

Surely make you lose your mind Life in the fast lane Uh-Huh Life in the fast lane Everything all the time Life in the fast lane Uh-Huh
 * Life in the fast lane
 * "Life in the Fast Lane"

Blinded by thirst They didn't see the stop sign Took a turn for the worst She said, "Listen, baby. You can hear the engine ring. We've been up and down this highway; haven't seen a goddamn thing." He said, "Call the doctor. I think I'm gonna crash." "The doctor say he's comin', but you gotta pay him cash." They went rushin' down that freeway, messed around and got lost They didn't know they were just dyin' to get off, and it was
 * Glowin' and burnin'
 * "Life in the Fast Lane"

Surely make you lose your mind Life in the fast lane Uh-Huh Life in the fast lane Everything all the time Life in the fast lane Uh-Huh
 * Life in the fast lane
 * "Life in the Fast Lane"

And you're trying to remember. How do you start it over? You don't know if you can. You don't care much for a stranger's touch, But you can't hold your man.
 * And you're back out on the street,
 * "Wasted Time", written by Henley, Frey

And I can get on with mine. And maybe someday we will find That it wasn't really wasted time.
 * So you can get on with your search, baby
 * "Wasted Time"

There's just one thing I don't understand. You say he's a liar and he put out your fire; How come you still got his gun in your hand? Victim of love, I see a broken heart. You got your stories to tell. Victim of love, it's such an easy part And you know how to play it so well.
 * I heard about you and that man.
 * "Victim of Love", written by Henley, Frey, Felder, Souther

I think you know what I mean. You're walkin' the wire, pain and desire, Looking for love in between. Tell me your secrets, I'll tell you mine; This ain't no time to be cool. And tell all your girlfriends, Your "been around the world" friends, That talk is for losers and fools.
 * Some people never come clean;
 * "Victim of Love"

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.
 * She heard about a place people were smiling.
 * "The Last Resort", written by Henley, Frey

Stand up and sing about what it's like up there '''They called it paradise, I don't know why You call some place paradise, kiss it goodbye'''
 * And you can see them there on Sunday morning
 * "The Last Resort"

The Long Run (1979)
I used to stay out till the break of day. Oh, that didn't get it, It was high time I quit it I just couldn't carry on that way. Oh, I did some damage, I know it's true Didn't know I was so lonely, till I found you.
 * I used to hurry a lot, I used to worry a lot
 * "The Long Run", written by Henley & Frey

We'll find out in the long run (in the long run) We can handle some resistance If our love is a strong one (is a strong one).
 * You can go the distance
 * "The Long Run"

Tearing our love apart Aren't we the same two people who lived Through years in the dark? Ahh... Every time I try to walk away Something makes me turn around and stay. And I can't tell you why.
 * Look at us baby, up all night
 * "I Can't Tell You Why", written by Schmit, Henley, Frey

Out beyond the neon lights I know there must be somethin' better but there's nowhere else in sight It's survival in the city When you live from day to day City streets don't have much pity When you're down, that's where you'll stay.
 * Somewhere out there on that horizon
 * "In the City", written by Walsh & Barry De Vorzon

Before the night is through Somebody's gonna come undone. There's nothin' we can do. Everybody wants to touch somebody If it takes all night. Everybody wants to take a little chance, Make it come out right.
 * Somebody's gonna hurt someone
 * "Heartache Tonight", written by Henley, Frey, Bob Seger, Souther

There must be someplace you can go. In the middle of the tall drinks and the drama, There must be someone you know. God knows you're looking good enough But you're so smooth and the world's so rough. You might have something to lose. Oh no, pretty mama, What you gonna do in those shoes?
 * Tell us what you're gonna do tonight mama,
 * "Those Shoes", written by Henley, Frey, Felder

Protected by amazing grace And we would sing right out loud, The things we could not say We thought we could change this world With words like "love" and "freedom" We were part of the lonely crowd Inside the Sad Cafe.
 * Oh, it seemed like a holy place,
 * "The Sad Cafe", written by Henley, Frey, Walsh, Souther

Long Road out of Eden (2007)
Too busy to think about us. I don't know what you were dreaming of, Somehow you forgot about love.
 * And you were just too busy being fabulous,
 * "Busy Being Fabulous", written by Henley, Frey

They say that love is just a state of mind, But all this fighting over who will be anointed. Oh how can people be so blind.
 * They say that anger is just love disappointed.
 * Hole in the World, written by Henley & Frey
