One Day at a TimeEagles

Released: June 14, 2005

Songwriter: Joe Walsh

Producer: Glenn Frey

Well you know I was always the first to arrive at the party
Oh, and the last to leave the scene of the crime
Well it started with a couple of beers
And it went I don't know how many years
Like a run away train heading for the
End of the line

Well I finally got around to admit that I might have a problem
But I thought it was just too damn big of a mountain to climb
Well I got down on my knees and said "Hey
I just can't go on living this way
Guess I have to learn to live my life
One day at a time."

Oh yeah, one day at a time
Oh yeah, one day at a time

Oh yeah, one day at a time
Oh yeah, one day at a time

Well I finally got around to admit that I was the problem
When I use to put the blame on everybody's shoulders but mine
All the friends I use to run with are gone
But I hadn't planned on living this long
Have to learn to live my life
One day at a time

It was something I was too blind to see
I got help from something greater then me
And I have to learn to live my life
One day at a time

Eagles

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”.
