Lyric - Take It Easy (The Eagles, 1972)

Take It Easy
Written by Jackson Browne, Glenn Frey
The Eagles
Asylum, May 1, 1972


Well, I'm running down the road
Tryin' to loosen my load
I've got seven women on my mind,

Four that wanna own me,
Two that wanna stone me,
One says she's a friend of mine.

Take it easy, take it easy
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

Well, I'm a standing on a corner in Winslow Arizona
I'm such a fine sight to see
It's a girl, my Lord, in a flatbed Ford slowin' down to take a look at me

Come on, baby, don't say maybe
I gotta know if your sweet love is gonna save me

We may lose and we may win
Though we will never be here again
So open up, I'm climbin' in
Take it easy...
(Alright)

Well I'm running down the road trying to loosen my load
Got a world of trouble on my mind
Lookin' for a lover who won't blow my cover, she's so hard to find

Take it easy, take it easy
Don't let the sound of your own wheels make you crazy
Come on baby, don't say maybe
I gotta know if your sweet love is gonna save me

ooh,ooh,ooh,ooh,ooh,ooh,ooh,ooh,ooh,ooh,ooh,ooh,ooh,ooh,ooh,ooh

Oh well you know we got it easy
We oughta take it easy, yeah
