Delbert McClinton - Take It Easy Lyrics






Take it easy lovin' me
Don't start thinkin' I'm something that I'll never be
Just need me, oh, yeah, as much as need be
Take it easy, easy, lovin' me

Many's the woman who's cried herself crazy at night
Over some kind of a man who she says ain't treatin' her right
Expectin' of someone is quick to be takin' its toll
And if you're not careful, you'll wake up lonely and old

Take it easy, easy, lovin' me
Don't start thinking I'm somethin' that I'll never be
Just need me as much as need be
Take it easy, easy, lovin' me

Now dreamin' and plannin' are things I guess all of us do
And sooner or later, we all play the part of a fool
But those in a hurry to unpack their bag full of dreams
Are quick to be victims of the lies and lusts and the schemes

Take it easy lovin' me
Don't start thinkin' I'm something that I'll never be
Just need me, oh yeah baby,
As much as need be
Take it easy lovin' me
Take it easy lovin' me

    Lovin' the song but,,, the lyrics on screen are no way the song, I can't even find a line Delbert's singin',,,,,very strange.Never knew about him til' I seen him sing 2 more bottles of wine with Martina McBride,,,WHAT A VOICE!!I love that rasp,,,,,,still listening,,,and looking.

  6. l.... h....

    That's one heck of a voice hard for other singer's to compete with. I think it's one of his best songs but I can't think of any that I dislike.

    This by far is my fsvorite Delbert Mcclinton Songs of all. It fits me and my life to a tee. Dreaming and planning are things, I guess all of us do. Those in a hurry to unpack their bags full of dreams, are quick to fall victim to the lies and the lust and the schemes. My favorite quote ever written!

  16. P.... N....

    There's not another song that I can describe the person that I have been. Just like the song says, take it easy, now I'm looking at 47yrs old and growing old, alone. This song takes me away!

    P.... N....

    Paul Necaise , you're never alone bubba, there are people all around us, every second of the day!

  17. B.... C....

    I’m a big fan of Delbert. How did I miss this great song. I woke up this morning listening to Imus In The Morning and this was playing.

  18. K.... W....

    sax Harrison Calloway
    superb song on one of Capricorn lps before first bankruptcy. also had muscle shoals horns and Bonnie bramlett. Crystal Gayle had a $1 country hit with it later.

    Maybe THE Best "White-Vocal" Soul Song!

    One of my favorite singers and song here.

  23. m.... D....

    youtube

  24. M.... H....

  25. T.... G....

    I love love love this song

  26. g.... w....

    What a song. This one and Dreams to Remember are my two favorites. The words in both songs tear at your heart. I don't think Delbert McClinton ever did a song that wasn't good tho. Love him.

    g.... w....

    How can one man can hit all the right vibes for your feelings with his songs simply amazing.

  27. D.... C....

  28. r.... ....

    My favorite Delbert Mcclinton song Eric Burdon does a great cover so does Crystal Gayle.

  29. R.... ....

    Mike Zito has included this song on his soon-to-be-released CD, "Gone to Texas," and he does an awesome job on the cover. There are a couple of YouTube live clips available of his version.

  30. R.... ....

    Is that Dana Robbins on the sax?

  31. T.... M....

    One of the best songs ever made!
