(Jackson Browne & Glenn Frey)

Well I'm a-running down the road trying to loosen my load

I've got seven women on my mind
Four that want to own me, two that want to 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-standin' on the corner in Winslow, Arizona
With 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've got to know if your sweet love is gonna save me
We may lose and we may win

But we will never be here again
Open up I'm climbin' in to take it easy


Well I'm a-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 just a little hard to find
Take it easy, take it easy
Don't let the sound of your own wheels drive you crazy

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


You know we got it easy
We oughta take it easy
