A new never ending Eagles song game!
Ok, I'm not actually sure if it's new or not, because I haven't been through every single thread on this board. But anyways... it popped in my head last night and I thought it might be fun to give it a try.
The concept is to put together a song, using lines from already existing Eagles (or Eagles solo) songs. I would guess that we should try to make it make sense, but I think going for funny could make it interesting too.
If anyone has a better idea or more suggestions, please feel free to share.
(btw, the song doesn't have to stay in the vein of Take It Easy since that's the line that I am going to use. I say just add a line that works with that line(s) and not worry about what or any tune.)

Sounds like fun, Lizzy. I'll try.

You been wond'rin' why she haunts you
They stab it with their steely knives
But I didn't think he'd kill
All I know is that I've gotta get away from here
Somebody's following me
Carrying that black rose
Time to open fire

Re: A new never ending Eagles song game!
Well, I'm running down the road, tryin' to loosen my load
Because I'm already gone
And I found out a long time ago
How to open doors with just a smile
I can't tell you why
There's talk on the street
And now it seems the whole wide world's gone crazy
Peacocks prance and strut upon the stage
Looking for the good life
They had one thing in common, they were good in bed
I can hear it when I stand beside the river
I thought I heard them say
"Take the devil from your mind"
"Please bring me my wine"
I wanna have some fun
It sure feels good sitting here tonight now that I've got mine
The feeling's getting stronger
Tell me can you feel it
The fever is high
She's been sleeping in the devil's bed
All the town-folk call her the cheap one
How was I to know?
All she wants to do is dance
So we danced together, close and slow
Doing the Hollywood Waltz
I feel my heart beating and I wonder
How come you still got his gun in your hand?
He should not go alone
Ev'ry girl's a fork in the road
Something no-one else could see
You been wond'rin' why she haunts you
They stab it with their steely knives
But I didn't think he'd kill
All I know is that I've gotta get away from here
Somebody's following me
Carrying that black rose
Time to open fire
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
