I pulled in to Nazareth, was feeling 'bout half past dead
|
I just need a place where I can lay my head
|
"Hey mister, can you tell me where a man might find a bed?"
|
He just grinned and shook my hand, "No" was all he said
|
|
Take a load off, Fanny
|
Take a load for free
|
Take a load off, Fanny
|
And you put the load right on me
|
|
I picked up my bag, I went looking 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 stick around"
|
|
Take a load off, Fanny
|
Take a load for free
|
Take a load off, Fanny
|
And you put the load right on me
|
|
Go down Miss Moses, there's nothing you can say
|
It's just old Luke, and Luke's waiting for the judgment day
|
"Well, Luke my friend, what about young Anna-Lee?"
|
He said "Do me a favor son, won't you stay and keep Anna-Lee company?"
|
|
Take a load off, Fanny
|
Take a load for free
|
Take a load off, Fanny
|
And you 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 you'll take Jack my dog"
|
I said "Wait a minute Chester, you know I'm a peaceful man"
|
He said "That's okay boy, won't you feed him when you can?" Yeah
|
|
Take a load off, Fanny
|
Take a load for free
|
Take a load off, Fanny
|
And you put the load right on me
|
|
Catch a cannonball now to take me on down the line
|
My bag is sinking 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
|
|
Take a load off, Fanny
|
Take a load for free
|
Take a load off, Fanny
|
And you put the load right on me
