The Weight
Pulled into Nazareth feeling bout half past dead
Just need a place where I can lay my head
Hey mister can you tell me where a girl might find a bed
He just grinned shook my hand no was all he said
Take a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
And put the load right on me
I picked up my bag I went lookin for a place to hide
When I saw Carmen and the Devil walkin side by side
I said Hey Carmen come on lets go downtown
She said I gotta go but mfriend can stick around
Take a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
And put the load right on me
Crazy Chester followed me and he caught me in the fog
He said I will fix your rack if youll take Jack my dog
I said Wait a minute Chester you know Im a peaceful man
He said Thats okay boy wont you feed him when you can
Take a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
And put the load right on me
Go down Miss Moses theres nothin you can say
Its just ol Luke and Lukes waitin for the Judgement Day
Well Luke my friend what about young Anna Lee
He said Do me a favor son woncha stay an keep Anna Lee company
Take a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
And put the load right on me
Take a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
And put the load right on me
Catch a cannon ball now ttake medown the line
My bag is sinkin low and I do believe its time
To get back to Miss Fanny you know shes the only one
Who sent me here with her regards for everyone
