The Weight Lyrics

I pulled in to Nazareth was feelin 'bout half past dead I just need some place where I can lay my head Hey mister, can you tell me where a girl might find a bed He just grinned and shook my hand no was all he said Take the load off Fanny, take the load for free Take the load off Fanny and, and, and you 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 walking side by side I said, hey Carmen come on let's go downtown She said I gotta go but my friend can't stick around Take the load off Fanny, take the load for free Take the load off Fanny and, and, and you put the load right on me Go down Moses there's nothing you can say It's just old Luke and Luke's waiting on the judgement day Well Luke my friend what about young Anna Lee He said do me a favour son, won't you stay and keep Anna Lee company Take the load off Fanny, take the load for free Take the load off Fanny and, and, and you put the load right on me Catch me a cannonball now take me on down the line My bag is sinking low and I do believe it's time Get in touch with Fanny you know she's the only one Who sent me here with her regards for everyone Take the load off Fanny, take the load for free Take the load off Fanny and, and, and you put the load right on me
