Lyrics The Weight

I pulled into Nazareth was feelin' 'bout half-past dead

I just need some place where I can lay my head

Hey mister can ya tell me where man might find a bed

He just grinned and he shook my hand, no was all he said

Take a load off Fanny

Take a load for free

Take a load off Fanny and ya put the load right on me ah ah ah ah ah uh

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 let's go downtown

She said I gotta go but my friend can stick around

Hey

Take a load off Fanny

Take a load for free

Take a load off Fanny and ya put the load right on me

Go down Miss Moses

There's nothin' you can't say

It's just old Luke and Luke's waitin' on the Judgment Day

Well Luke my friend what about young Anna Lee

He said do me a favor son won't ya stay and keep Anna Lee company

Take a load off Fanny

Take a load for free

Take a load off Fanny and ya put the load right on me hee hee hee hee hee hee

Crazy Chester followed me and he caught me in the fog

He said I will fix your rack if you'll take Jack my dog

I said wait a minute Chester

You know I'm a peaceful man

He said that's OK boy won't ya feed him when you can

Hey

Take a load off Fanny

Take a load for free

Take a load off Fanny and ya put the load right on me ah ah ah

Catch your cannonball now to take me down the line

My bag is sinkin' low and I do believe it's time

To get back to Miss Fanny

You know she's the only one who sent me here with her regards for everyone

Hey

Take a load off Fanny

Take a load for free

Take a load off Fanny and ya put the load right on me hee hee

Hee hee hee hee hee
