Seven Bridges Road, Eagles

This song was written and recorded by Steve Young, and is about a real road in Montgomery, Alabama, that crossed seven bridges. It was named Woodley Road.

The five-part Eagles harmonies made it famous

RIP Randy Meisner

Good topic, @MaVolta! You didn't specify those words must be in the title, and it's hard to think of Randy Meisner & the Eagles without bringing to mind Hotel California, which starts out, "On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair, warm smell of colitas rising up through the air. Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light. My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim, I had to stop for the night..."

@millineutron  - Well, I didn’t say title specifically, but that was the implication, or so I thought! LoL 😸 If we get into lyrics, that would open it up to a huge number of songs, so I’d rather keep it to song titles. But those are all great songs by the Eagles.

Noted! 😎  And thanks for editing the instructions for the super-literal folks like me haha.

And likewise, Take It Easy, another Eagles road song, starts out, "Well, I'm running down the road tryin' to loosen my load, I've got seven women on my mind. Four that wanna own me, two that wanna stone me, one says she's a friend of mine. Take it easy, take it easy. Don't let the sound of your own wheels drive you crazy. Lighten up while you still can, don't even try to understand. Just find a place to make your stand and take it easy."

[millineutron]

And then there's Take It To the Limit, co-written by Randy Meisner and featuring him as lead vocalist, "So put me on a highway, show me a sign, take it to the limit one more time." RIP Randy. 😥
