Wally's all night grocery is doing well
Magazines and chocolate can't be hard to sell
Dollar for the news of disaster and war
Sometimes I wonder what I buy it for
It's gonna be a better year
Better than the last one dear
Take it easy, it's all right
Take it easy, it's all right
This little apartment has a pretty good view
Neighbor's kids are fighting but they always do
Watching as they pile into the yellow bus
Can't believe next year there will be three of us
Gonna be a better year
Better than the last one dear
Take it easy, it's all right
Take it easy, it's all right
And if the weight on your back is too much for you
Do what all the happy people do
Hold the one you love by your side
And let it ride
It's all right, take it easy
Days have gotten short, the amaryllis blooms
There's a tranquil blue light in these tiny rooms
Every day we hear of a new tragedy
So I am surprised happiness has crept up on me
Everything will be ok
Feel it in my bones today
Take it easy, it's all right
Take it easy, it's all right
And if the weight on your back is too much for you
Do what all the happy people do
Hold the one you love by your side
And let it ride
It's all right, take it easy
It's all right, take it easy
It's all right
