Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, I'm running down the road
Trying to loosen my load
I got seven women on my mind
Four that wanna own me
Two that wanna stone me
One says she's a friend of mine
[Verse 2]
Take it easy, take it easy
Don't let the sound of your own wheels
Drive you crazy
[Verse 3]
Lighten up while you still can
Don't even try to understand
Just find a place to make your stand
And take it easy
[Verse 4]
Well, I'm standing on a corner
In Winslow Arizona
Such a fine sight to see
It's a girl, my lord, in a flatbed Ford
Slowing down to take a look at me
[Verse 5]
Well, come on baby
Don't say maybe
I gotta know if your sweet love
Is gonna save me
[Verse 6]
We may lose and we may win
But we will never be here again
So open up, I'm climbing in
To take it easy
[Verse 7]
Well, I'm running down the road
Trying to loosen my load
Got a world of trouble on my mind
Been looking for a lover
Who won't blow my cover
She's so hard to find
[Verse 8]
Take it easy, take it easy
Don't let the sound of your own wheels
Drive you crazy
[Verse 9]
Come on, baby
Don't say maybe
I gotta know if your sweet love
Is gonna save me
[Verse 10]
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
[Verse 11]
Well, you know we got it easy
We oughta take it easy
We'll shake it, make it
Take it easy
Yeah
