Seven Bridges Road The Eagles
Seven Bridges Road Album: Eagles Live (1980)
by Eagles
The "Seven Bridges Road" is Woodley Road in Montgomery, Alabama. This song describes the emotions the singer feels as he travels the road, which does have seven bridges and moss covered trees.
This was written and originally recorded by the Country singer Steve Young in 1969 on his debut album Rock Salt & Nails. It is Young's most famous song.
According to issue 338 of Goldmine magazine, the Eagles didn't want to do a live album, but Joe Smith, who worked for their label, kept trying to convince them to do one. The band finally agreed to record some shows in 1980, but at the last minute threatened to cancel unless Smith could answer a trivia question, which he did: "Who were the four 20-game winners on the Baltimore Orioles pitching staff in 1971?" Answer: Mike Cuellar, Pat Dobson, Dave McNally and Jim Palmer.
Writer Stephen T. Young
There are stars in the southern sky
Southward as you go
There is moonlight and moss in the trees
Down the Seven Bridges Road
Now I have loved you like a baby
Like some lonesome child
And I have loved you in a tame way
And I have loved you wild
Sometimes there's a part of me
Has to turn from here and go
Running like a child from these warm stars
Down the Seven Bridges Road
There are stars in the southern sky
And if ever you decide you should go
There is a taste of time sweetened honey
Down the Seven Bridges Road
