Well I'm runnin'down the road Try'n 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 standing on a corner In Winslow Arizona Such a fine sight to see It's a girl my lord In a flat-bed Ford Slowing 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 climbing in So take it easy Well I'm 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's Gonna save me
