[Verse 1]
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

[Verse 2]
On the day that I die, well
I just might scream
If I'm alive in the morning
I'll 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]
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

[Verse 3]
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

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

one of the most popular and successful bands of all time. Originating in Los Angeles in 1971, its founding members were Glenn Frey, Don Henley, Bernie Leadon, and Randy Meisner. They saw the coming and going of various members, including Frey who passed away in 2016.

Eagles were a success from the start. Their eponymous debut album, Eagles (1972), saw three singles enter the Top 40: “Take It Easy”, “Witchy Woman”, and “Peaceful Easy Feeling”, reaching respective peaks of 12, 9, and 22.

At this point, however, the Eagles were just getting started. Their second album, Desperado (1973), featured two of their most popular songs of all “Tequila Sunrise” and title track “Desperado”. Additionally, the other songs were critically acclaimed for other reasons, such as Leadon’s performance on “Saturday Night”. You’d be wrong if you thought the Eagles were settling down after back-to-back triumphs. Their next album, On the Border (1974), had on it their first “Best of My Love”.
