I pulled in to Nazareth,
was feeling
'bout half past dead
I just need some 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 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 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 rat
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?"
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 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 |
