Girl Take It Easy
The Pietasters Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well I woke up this morning to your tap, tap, tappin' at my front door, Girl take it easy Well I woke up this morning to your knock, knock, knockin' at my front door, Girl take it easy Cause my head was ham, ham, hammerin' from the beers that we tap, tap, tappin' the night before, Girl take it easy And I remember stammerin' as you and I were staggerin' at my front door, Girl take it easy

Well I rolled up very chilly in my king size bed when I happened to notice a lovely young lady's head I thought to myself, my God what have I done I've been drinkin' again and havin' too much fun Well I rolled up very chilly in my king size bed when I happened to notice a lovely young lady's head I thought to myself, my God what have I done I been drinkin' again and havin' too much fun

Girl, girl, girl, won't you come back tomorrow Girl, girl, girl, won't you come back tomorrow

Well I woke up this morning to your knock, knock, knockin' at my front door, Girl take it easy Well I woke up this morning to your bang, bang, bangin' at my front door, Girl take it easy Cause my head was ham, ham, hammerin' from the beers that we were tap, tap, tappin' the night before, Girl take it easy And I remember stammerin' as you and I were staggerin' at my front door, Girl take it easy

Well I rolled up very chilly in my king size bed when I happened to notice a lovely young lady's head I thought to myself, my God what have I done I been drinkin' again and havin' too much fun Girl, girl, girl, won't you come back tomorrow Girl, girl, girl, won't you come back tomorrow

Overall Meaning

In The Pietasters' song "Girl Take It Easy," the singer wakes up to the sound of someone knocking on his door. He realizes it's a woman he was with the night before, and his head is pounding from the alcohol they consumed. He remembers stumbling with her to his front door but can't recall much else. The second verse repeats the same sentiment, with the singer realizing he's in bed with a woman and feeling guilty for drinking too much.


Overall, the lyrics paint a picture of a man who drank too much and got caught up in the moment with a woman. He's regretful in the morning but seems hopeful that she'll come back. The repeated refrain of "Girl, girl, girl, won't you come back tomorrow" emphasizes this desire for a second chance.

on Set Me Up

The song is about former DC mayor, Marion Barry.

On January 18, 1990, Barry was arrested with a former girlfriend, Hazel Diane Moore, in a sting operation at the Vista International Hotel by the FBI and D.C. police for crack cocaine use and possession. Moore was an FBI informant when she invited Barry to the hotel room and insisted that he smoke freebase cocaine before they had sex, while agents in another room watched on camera, waiting for Barry to accept her offer. During the videotaped arrest, Barry says of Moore, "Bitch set me up.”
