On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair

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" ”

Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way

There were voice down in corridor, I thought I heard them say

Welcome to the Hotel California

Such a lovely place (Such a lovely place)

Plenty of room at the Hotel California

Any time of year, you can find it here

Her mind is Tiffany-twisted

She got the Mercedes bends

She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys

She calls friends

How they dance in the courtyard

Sweet summer swea

Some dance to remember

Some dance to forget

So I called up the captain

"Please bring me my wine." ”

He said, "We haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty nine."

And still those voices are calling from far away

Wake up in the middle of the night

Just to hear them say

Welcome to the Hotel California

Such a lovely place (Such a lovely place)

They livin' it up at the Hotel California

What a nice surprise, bring your alibis

Mirrors on the ceilling

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 gathers for the feast

They stab it with their steely knives

But they just can't kill the beast

Last thing I remember, I was 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!"
