Lookin’ for a lover Who won’t blow my cover She’s so hard to find.
Are you implying the woman in Winslow AZ is a beard? Or MtF? Or perhaps this is a sudden realization of a preference for female anatomy with male social behaviors?
He has to make sure she ain’t a snitch.
It’s a girl, My lord, In a flatbed Ford…
I always thought it would mean it’s a woman that is willing to sneak around in hats and sunglasses and hide from the paparazzi, instead of being an attention whore
Always took it to mean he has a wife and is looking for lovers who won’t ruin his marriage. Maybe I just know too many people who’ve been womanizers that this scenario is my assumption
Really annoys me how half the rock songs I like proudly announce what an absolute scumbag the author is
Essentially every eagles song is from the perspective of an alcoholic who can’t get relationships right.
Not all songs are based in reality, they’re just stories that sound good. Plus most are a time capsule of the times they were made in, being a womanizer wasn’t as frowned upon back then and was pretty much expected of musicians
I don’t disagree, but I still think it says something about the writer of the song. Cheating on your wife is and was scummy behavior, and so is romanticizing it, just less so
Maybe 7 is enough?
Well…
Four that wanna own me. Two that wanna stone me.
One says she’s a friend of mine.None of those sound like the type of relationship he’s looking for
Take it easy
Take it easy.
Don’t let the sound of your own wheels drive you crazy.
Lighten up while you still can
Fuck you, man! If you don’t like my fucking music, get your own fucking cab!
Recently learned it’s actually “Eagles”, not “The Eagles”. (For example, take a look at the album covers. There are also documentaries in which they talk about it.)
But even the band themselves will use “the” when it grammatically makes sense. So confusing.As Sherlock Holmes said in A Study In Scarlet…
“Now that I do know it I shall do my best to forget it.”
Yet another area where Phish were ahead of the game.
Maybe he’s ethically non-monogamous.
First verse and chorus was written by Jackson Brown, the rest by Glenn Frey. So I’m guessing Jackson had seven women, and Glenn just the one.
No conclusions can be drawn.
even after this girl he admits that he’s lookin for a lover. maybe it’s about a guy who can’t recognize that he needs to slow down on this kind of thing, make a little time for himself to rest and grow and, just for a while…
