Take It Easy lyrics - Eagles

Well, I'm a-running 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-standing 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 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 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

Witchy Woman lyrics - Eagles

Raven hair and ruby lips
Sparks fly from her fingertips
Echoed voices in the night
She's a restless spirit on an endless flight

Woo hoo witchy woman,
See how high she flies
Woo hoo witchy woman
She got the moon in her eye

She held me spellbound in the night
Dancing shadows and firelight
Crazy laughter in another room
And she drove herself to madness with a silver spoon

Woo hoo witchy woman
See how high she flies
Woo hoo witchy woman
She got the moon in her eye

Well, I know you want a lover,
Let me tell you, brother,
She's been sleeping in the Devil's bed.

And there's some rumors going round
Someone's underground
She can rock you in the nighttime
'Til your skin turns red

Woo hoo witchy woman
See how high she flies
Woo hoo witchy woman
She got the moon in her eye

Most Of Us Are Sad lyrics - Eagles

Most of us are sad
No one lets it show
I've been shadows of myself
How was I to know?

Tell me, scarlet sun,
What will time allow?
We have brought our children here
Who can save them now?

Weeping woman, try to smile
Like the coming dawn
Most of us are sad, it's true
Still we must go on

Love was here today
Oh the sun was bright
I will sing you faraway
Love is here tonight

Most of us are sad
No one lets it show
I've been shadows of myself
How was I to know?

Chug All Night lyrics - Eagles

You scare me a bit,
But that's all right
You know when I want you
Most every night

And I've been meaning to tell you, baby
that it makes no sense
Still I'm finally convinced

I believe we could chug all night
I believe we could hug all night
The band is loose and the groove is right
You're so much woman
Believe we could chug all night

On the day that I die,
Well, I just might scream
If I'm alive in the morning
I'll be alive in a dream

You better listen to me, baby
'Cause you know that I'm hung on you
'Til I'm blind and black and blue
No one else will do

I do believe we can chug all night
I do believe we can hug all night
The band is loose and the groove is right
You're so much woman
Believe we could chug all night

No woman ever do what you do
High on a pleasure wheel
No devil ever cast a voodoo
So long and dark and real

We're gonna do a little chugging
We're gonna do a little hugging
The band is loose and the groove is right
I'm wired for sound
Are you wired for light?
And you're so much woman,
I believe we can chug all night

I said yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Woo! It's only midnight, baby
Come on and do it to me

Nightingale lyrics - Eagles

I'm hanging on to my peace of mind
I just don't know
I'm hanging on to those good times, baby
Just wanna let them roll

I'm gonna make it to the light and joy
I'll tell you why
I got a woman who can take me there
The apple of my eye

Oh, I just don't know, no no, no
No, I love her so

Don't let me see that morning paper
'Cause I don't need those dues
It's just the same old murder movie
But they call it "the news"

I'll tell you what would be some story
And what would set me free
Is if the same thing happened to everybody
That just happened to me

Oh, I just don't know, no, no, no, no
No, I'll never let her go, no, no, no

Every time I hear somebody sneakin' up behind
Whoa, I turn around
But I still hear that sound
And just when I'm about to lose my mind

Here comes my baby
Singing like a nightingale
Coming my way down along that devastation trail
Well tell the Lord above
She's got a brand of love
That cannot fail

I'm hanging on to my peace of mind
That's no lie
I'm hanging on to my special friend
The apple of my eye

The apple of my eye
My inspiration, too
She's got a lead on my heart and my soul
And she knows just what to do

Oh, I just don't know, no, no, no, no
No, I get so low
And my mind's about to go
But wait a minute

Here comes my baby
Singing like a nightingale
Coming my way down along that devastation trail
Well, let the fires burn
Let the floods return
We will prevail

Hanging on to my peace of mind
I just don't know

Train Leaves Here This Morning lyrics - Eagles

I lost ten points just for being
In the right place at exactly the wrong time
I looked right at the facts there,
But I may as well have been completely blind

So, if you see me walking all alone
Don't look back, I'm just on my way back home

There's a train leaves here this morning,
I don't know what I might be on

She signed me to a contract,
Baby said it would all be so life-long
I looked around then for a reason
When there wasn't something more to blame it on

But if time makes a difference while we're gone
Tell me now, and I won't be hanging on

There's a train leaves here this morning
I don't know, what I might be on

1320 North Columbus was the address
That I wrote down on my sleeve
I don't know just what she wanted
Might have been that it was getting time to leave

And I watched as the smoker passed it on
And I laughed when the joker said, "Lead on."

'Cause there's a train leaves here this morning
I don't know what I might be on

There's a train leaves here this morning
I don't know what I might be on

Take The Devil lyrics - Eagles

Open up your eyes
Take the devil from your mind
He's been holding on to you
And you're so hard to find

The wind outside is cold
Restless feeling in my soul
Tempting me to get away
But there's no place a man can go

God, will you lead me where I roam?
Help me not to let my feelings show
No, no

You are the one,
Oh, how could you be so blind?
The devil prays
On runaways
He's never far behind

The many years I've tried
Now have been revealed to me
Closer is the love you'll find
Waiting so patiently

God, will you lead me where I roam?
Help me not to let my feelings show.
No, no

Take the devil
Take the devil
From your mind

Earlybird lyrics - Eagles

Early in the morning
About the break of day
The earlybird is working
So his life don't fade away

He spends his days denying
That he's got no time for flying
In the breeze

High up on his own,
The eagle flies alone
And he is free

Earlybird is scratching
Though the going's getting tough
Time is passing by him
And he just can't get enough

He'll tell you all is going well
But he knows that somethings wrong
The earlybird will wake one day
And find his life is gone

Know I like to lay in bed
And sleep out in the sun
Reading books and playing
Crazy music just for fun

You know it makes feel so fine
And sets my mind at ease
To know that I don't harm a soul
In doing what I please

Any old day you say,
Ain't gonna fade away
Any old day you say,
Ain't gonna fade away

Any old day you say,
Ain't gonna fade away
Any old day you say,
Ain't gonna fade away

Any old day you say,
Ain't gonna fade away
Any old day you say,
Ain't gonna fade away

Peaceful Easy Feeling lyrics - Eagles

I like the way your sparkling earrings lay
Against your skin so brown.
And I wanna sleep with you in the desert tonight
With a billion stars all around.

'Cause I got a peaceful easy feeling.
And I know you won't let me down
'Cause I'm already standing on the ground.

And I found out a long time ago
What a woman can do to your soul.
Oh, but she can't take you anyway,
You don't already know how to go.

And I got a peaceful easy feeling.
And I know you won't let me down
'Cause I'm already standing on the ground.

I get this feeling I may know you
As a lover and a friend.
But this voice keeps whispering in my other ear,
Tells me I may never see you again.

'Cause I get a peaceful easy feeling.
And I know you won't let me down
'Cause I'm already standing
I'm already standing
Yes, I'm already standing on the ground

Tryin' lyrics - Eagles

I'm just arriving in the city
And there's music on my mind
Lookin' for my destination
And my home is far behind

'Cause it's a long road ahead
And you can make it in the end
I'm gonna make it with my friends
And I'm tryin'

It took me sometime to see it
Now I'm looking through this world
And it's gonna take some time
Before I get back, help me, girl

'Cause you can make it if you try
You gotta lay it on the line
And everything will be fine
If you try

Sittin' smokin' just a-thinkin'
Is an easy thing to do
We gotta keep on trying
For the feelin' to come through

And it's a lonely way to live
You gotta take it, you gotta give
If you mistake it, just try again
And I'm trying,

Ah, we got to keep on trying
Ah, we got to keep on trying
Ah, we got to keep on trying
Ah, we got to keep on trying
Whoa, I'm trying
We got to keep on trying
Whoa, I'm trying
We got to keep on trying
We got to keep on trying

All Night Long lyrics - Eagles

We get up early and we work all day
We put our time in 'cause we like to stay up
All night long

We keep on grinnin' till the weekend comes
Just a pinch between your cheek and gum
All night long, all night long

Start in the morning and get the job done
Take care of bus'ness and we have some fun
All night long, all night long

We like a long neck and a good old song
Turn it up and then we sing along
Sing along
We're all stayin' up all night long

All night long
All night long
All night long
All night long

Funky New Year lyrics - Eagles

Went to a party just last night
Wanted to bring the year in right
Woke up this morning I don't know how
Last night I was a happy man, but the way I feel right now
It's gonna be a FUNKY NEW YEAR
FUNKY NEW YEAR
Ooo, Ahh, got to be a FUNKY NEW YEAR
FUNKY NEW YEAR
Can't remember when I ever felt worse
Nothing matters and everything hurts
They were passin' round the bottle, made me feel brand new
Trouble with the new man he wants a hit too, hit me
FUNKY NEW YEAR
FUNKY NEW YEAR
oooooo, it's a FUNKY NEW YEAR
FUNKY NEW YEAR
FUNKY NEW YEAR
FUNKY NEW YEAR
Lord, mmm, FUNKY NEW YEAR
Nurse I'm worse FUNKY NEW YEAR
I got to perk up a little FUNKY NEW YEAR
My hair hurts FUNKY NEW YEAR
FUNKY NEW YEAR
FUNKY NEW YEAR
FUNKY NEW YEAR
FUNKY NEW YEAR
A party baby
Never again FUNKY NEW YEAR
FUNKY NEW YEAR
Who's shoes are these FUNKY NEW YEAR
FUNKY NEW YEAR
Party hardy baby FUNKY NEW YEAR
FUNKY NEW YEAR
What year is this anyway?

Life's Been Good lyrics - Eagles

(originally by Joe Walsh)
(Live Version (Santa Monica, July 29, 1980))

I have a mansion
Forget the price
Ain't never been there
They tell me it's nice

I live in hotels
Tear out the walls
I have accountants
Pay for it all

They say I'm crazy but I have a good time
I'm just looking for clues at the scene of the crime
Life's been good to me so far

My Maserati
Does one eighty-five
I lost my license
Now I don't drive

I have a limo
Ride in the trunk
I lock the doors
In case I get drunk

I make hit records
My fans they can't wait
They write Tim letters
Tell Glenn Don's great

So I got me an office
Gold records on the wall
Just leave a message
Maybe I'll call

Lucky I'm sane after all I've been through
(Everybody says) I'm cool (He's cool)
I can't complain but sometimes I still do
Life's been good to me so far

I go to parties
Sometimes until four
It's hard to leave
When you can't find some more

It's tough to handle
This fortune and fame
Everybody's so different
We're all insane

They say I'm lazy but it takes all my time
(Everybody says) Oh yeah (Oh yeah)
I keep on going guess I'll never know why
Life's been good to me so far
Yeah, yeah, yeah

New Kids In Town lyrics - Eagles

There's talk on the street; it sounds so familiar
Great expectations, everybody's watching you
People you meet, they all seem to know you
Even your old friends treat you like you're something new

Johnny come lately, the new kid in town
Everybody loves you, so don't let them down

You look in her eyes; the music begins to play
Hopeless romantics, here we go again
But after a while you're looking the other way
It's those restless hearts that never mend

Johnny come lately, the new kid in town
Will she still love you when you're not around?
There's so many things you should have told her
But night after night you're willing to hold her
Just hold her, tears on your shoulder

There's talk on the street; it's there to remind you
It doesn't really matter which side you're on
You're walking away and they're talking behind you
They will never forget you till somebody new comes along
Where you been lately? There's a new kid in town
Everybody loves him, don't they?

And he's holding her, and you're still around
Oh, my, my
There's a new kid in town, just another new kid in town
Ooh, hoo
Everybody's talking 'bout the new kid in town
Ooh, hoo
Everybody's walking like the new kid in town

There's a new kid in town. I don't want to hear it
There's a new kid in town. I don't want to hear it
There's a new kid in town. There's a new kid in town
There's a new kid in town. Everybody's talking
There's a new kid in town. People started walking
There's a new kid in town
There's a new kid in town

One Day At A Time lyrics - Eagles

Well you know I was always the first to arrive at the party
Oh, and the last to leave the scene of the crime
Well it started with a couple of beers
And it went I don't know how many years
Like a run away train heading for the
End of the line

Well I finally got around to admit that I might have a problem
But I thought it was just too damn big of a mountain to climb
Well I got down on my knees and said "Hey
I just can't go on living this way
Guess I have to learn to live my life
One day at a time."

Oh yeah, one day at a time
Oh yeah, one day at a time

Oh yeah, one day at a time
Oh yeah, one day at a time

Well I finally got around to admit that I was the problem
When I use to put the blame on everybody's shoulders but mine
All the friends I use to run with are gone
But I hadn't planned on living this long
Have to learn to live my life
One day at a time

It was something I was too blind to see
I got help from something greater then me
And I have to learn to live my life
One day at a time

Please Come Home For Christmas / Funky New Year lyrics - Eagles

Please Come Home For Christmas
Bells will be ringing this sad sad news
Oh what a Christmas to have the blues
My baby's gone I have no friends
To wish me greetings once again
Choirs will be singing Silent Night
Christmas carols by candle light
Please come home for Christmas
Please come home for Christmas
If not for Christmas by New Years night
Friends and relations
Send salutations
Sure as the stars shine above
But this is Christmas
Yeah, it's Christmas my dear
It's the time of year to be with the one you love
So won't you tell me
You'll never more roam
Christmas and New Year
Will find you home
There be no more sorrow
No grief and pain
And I'll be happy, happy, once again
Ooo, there be no more sorrow
No grief and pain
And I'll be happy, Christmas, once again

Sunset Grill lyrics - Eagles

Let's go down to the Sunset Grill
We can watch the working girls go by
Watch the basket people walk around and mumble
And stare out at the auburn sky

There's an old man there from the old world
To him, its all the same
Calls all his customers by name

Down at the Sunset Grill
Down at the Sunset Grill
Down at the Sunset Grill
Down at the Sunset Grill

You see a lot more meanness in the city
Its the kind that tears you up inside
Hard to come away with anything that feels like dignity
Hard to get home with any pride

These days a man makes you somethin'
And you never see his face
But there is no hiding place

Down at the Sunset Grill
Down at the Sunset Grill
Down at the Sunset Grill
Down at the Sunset Grill

Respectable little murders pay
They get more respectable every day
Don't worry girl, I'm gonna stick by you
And someday soon were gonna get in that car and get outta here

Let's go down to the Sunset Grill
Watch the working girls go by
Watch the basket people walk around and mumble
And gaze out at the auburn sky

Maybe well leave come springtime
Meanwhile, have another beer
What would we do without these jerks anyway?
Besides, all our friends are here

Down at the Sunset Grill
Down at the Sunset Grill
Down at the Sunset Grill
Down at the Sunset Grill

The Boys Of Summer lyrics - Eagles

Nobody on the road
Nobody on the beach
I feel it in the air
The summer's out of reach

Empty lake, empty streets
The sun goes down alone
I'm driving by your house
Though I know you're not home

But I can see you
Your brown skin shining in the sun
You got your hair combed back
And your sunglasses on, baby

And I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
After the boys of summer have gone

I never will forget those nights
I wonder if it was a dream
Remember how you made me crazy
Remember how I made you scream

Now I don't understand what
Happened to our love
But, baby, I'm gonna get you back
I'm gonna show you what I'm made of

But I can see you
Your brown skin shining in the sun
I see you walking real slow and you're
Smiling at everyone

And I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
After the boys of summer have gone

Out on the road today I saw a Black Head
Sticker on a Cadillac
A little voice inside my head said:
"Don't look back, you can never look back"

I thought I knew what love was
What did I know?
Those days are gone forever
I should just let them go, but...

But I can see you
Your brown skin shining in the sun
You got that top pulled down
And that radio on, baby
And I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
After the boys of summer have gone

I can see you
Your brown skin shining in the sun
You got that hair slicked back
And those Wayfarers on, baby
And I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
After the boys of summer have gone

Walk Away lyrics - Eagles

Takin' my time choosin' my line
Tryin' to decide what to do
Looks like my stop I don't wanna get off
I got myself hung up on you
Seems to me you don't want to talk about it
Seemed to me you just turn your pretty head and walk away

Places I've known things that I'm growin' and
Don't taste the same without you
Got myself in worst mess I've been
And I find myself startin' to doubt you
Comes a day talk all night here comes the morning
Come one night you just holdin' what we said and greet the day

I've got to cool myself down from stompin' around
Thinkin' some words 'cause I can't name ya
Guess it's okay got nothing to say
Still I don't suppose I can blame ya
Seems to me you don't wanna talk about it
Seemed to me you just turn your pretty head and walk away

Yeah walk away, walk away, walk away

You Belong To The City lyrics - Eagles

The sun goes down
The night rolls in
You can feel it starting all over again
The moon comes up

And the music calls
You're getting tired of staring at the same four walls
You're out of your room
And down on the street
Moving through the crowds through the midnight heat

The traffic roars
And the sirens scream
You look at the faces, its just like a dream

Nobody know where you're going
Nobody cares where you've been

'Cause you belong to the city
You belong to the night
Living in a river of darkness, beneath the neon light
You were born in the city

Concrete under your feet
It's in your blood, its in your moves
You're a man of the street
When you said goodbye

You were on the run
Tryin' to get away from all the things you'd done
Now you're back again
And you're feeling strange
So much has happened, but nothing has changed

You still don't know where you're going
Your still just a face in the crowd

'Cause you belong to the city...

You can feel it
You can taste it
You can see it
You can face it
You can hear it
You're getting near it
You wanna make it
'Cause you can take it

You belong to the city

Seven Bridges Road lyrics - Eagles

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 thyme sweetened honey
Down the Seven Bridges Road
