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
