Take It Easy - Eagles, The (cover-live by Bill Sharkey)
Take It Easy (Eagles, The, 1972). Live cover performance by Bill Sharkey, Home Studio, Hawaii Kai, HI. 2022-05-20. "Keeping the Oldies Alive"
"Take It Easy," written by Jackson Browne and Glenn Frey, was the Eagles' very first entrance onto the Billboard Hot 100 in 1972 rising to #12 on the chart (Whitburn, 2013). "A real road trip inspired this song. Jackson Browne had been working on his first album for a long time and needed a break, so he headed to Utah from Southern California via Arizona, which took him through Winslow on Route 40 . . . [while passing through Utah, his 1953 Willys Jeep] died, and he was taken in by some guys he met out there. He started writing the song in their van, then completed it with Glenn Frey when he returned to California." (songfacts, 2022).

Lyrics:
Well I'm a runnin' 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 standin' on a corner
In Winslow, Arizona
Such a fine sight to see
It's a girl my Lord in a flat-bed 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
So take it easy
Well, I'm a runnin' down the road
Tryin' 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
Oh we got it easy
We oughta take it easy
