Lyrics

1. TAKE IT EASY

Well I'm a runnin' 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 standin' 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 a 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
Is gonna save me

Oh we got it easy
We oughta take it easy


2. WITCHY WOMAN

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

[Chorus]
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 & firelight
Crazy laughter in another room
And she drove herself to madness with a silver spoon

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
Ah, oh ah ah (waahaa)(x2)

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 rumours going round, someone's underground
She can rock you in the night-time 'til your skin turns red

[Chorus]


3. CHUG ALL NIGHT

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
Yeah yeah

[Chorus]
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 I
Believe we could chug all night

On the day that I die, well
I just might scream
If I'm alive in the morning
Ill be alive in a dream
You better listen to me baby
Cause you know that I'm hung on you
Till I'm blind and black and blue
No one else will do

[Chorus]

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

[Chorus]

We're going to do a little chugging
We're going to 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 could chug all night

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


4. MOST OF US ARE SAD

[Chorus]
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?
Oh, 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

[Chorus]


5. NIGHTINGALE

[Chorus 1]
I'm hanging on to my peace of mind
I just don't know
I'm hanging on to those good times, baby
Just want to 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

[Chorus 2]
Oh, I just don't know, no no, no, no
Oh, I love her so

Don't let me see that morning paper
Because 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

[Chorus 2]
Oh, I just don't know, no, no, no, no
Oh, I'll never let her go, no, no, no

And every time I hear somebody
Sneaking up behind
Oh, I turn around but I still hear that sound
And just when I'm about to lose my mind

[Chorus 3]
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

[Chorus 1]

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

[Chorus 2]

[Chorus 3]

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
And let the floods return, we will prevail

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


6. TRAIN LEAVES HERE THIS MORNING

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

[Chorus]
So, if you see me walking all alone
Don't look back, I'm just on my way back home
And there's a train leaves here this morning
And 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

[Chorus]
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
And I don't know, what I might be on
Ooo, ooo, ooo.. etc

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

[Chorus]
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
And I don't know, what I might be on

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


7. TAKE THE DEVIL

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

[Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
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


8. EARLYBIRD

Early in the morning
About the break of day
The earlybird is working
So his life don't fade away
Spends his life 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 well when
All is really going wrong
The earlybird will wake one day
And find his life is gone
You 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 puts 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 going to fade away(x2)


9. PEACEFUL EASY FEELING

I like the way your sparkling earrings lay,
Against your skin, it's 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
Oh, oh


10. TRYIN'

I'm just arriving in the city
And there's music on my mind
Looking for my destination and
My home is far behind
Cause it's a long road ahead
And you can make it in the end
And i'm going to make it with my friends
And i'm trying
It took me sometime to see it
Now i'm looking through this world
And it's going to take some time before
I get back, help me girl
Cause you can make it if you try
You got to lay it on the line
And everything will be fine if you try
Sitting smoking just a thinking
Is an easy thing to do
We got to keep on trying for
The feeling to come through
And it's a lonely way to live
You got to take it, you got to live
If you mistake it, just try again
And i'm trying, yeah!
Got to keep on trying
Ah, we got to keep on trying
Yeah i'm trying...
