The Weight

The Weight lyrics

Pulled in to Nazareth, was feeling 'bout a half past dead
I just need some place to lay my head
"Mister, can you tell me where a man might find a bed?"
"Oh 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 mePicked up my bag, went looking for a place to hide
Saw Carmen and the Devil walking side by side
"Hey Carmen, come on let's go downtown"
She said, "I gotta go but my friend gotta 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
(You put the load on me)Go down, Miss Moses, nothin' that you can say yeah
It's just ol' Luke, and he's waitin' on the Judgement Day yeah
"Luke, my friend, what about Anna Lee?"
"Do me a favor, son, and keep her company?"
Take a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
You put the load right on meAnd take a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
You put the load right on meTake a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
You put the load right on me...
