I pulled into Nazareth
|
|
I was feelin' about 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 a load off Fanny
|
|
Take a load for free
|
|
Take a load off Fanny
|
|
And (and) (and) put the weight on me
|
|
|
|
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 m'friend can stick around"
|
|
|
|
Take a load off Fanny
|
|
Take a load for free
|
|
Take a load off Fanny
|
|
And (and) (and) put the weight on me
|
|
|
|
Go down, Moses
|
|
There ain't nothin' for you to say
|
|
It's just ol' Luke
|
|
And Luke's waitin' on the Judgment Day
|
|
"Well, Luke, my friend
|
|
What about young Anna Lee?"
|
|
He said, "Do me a favor
|
|
Stay an' keep Anna Lee company."
|
|
|
|
Take a load off Fanny
|
|
Take a load for free
|
|
Take a load off Fanny
|
|
And (and) (and) put the weight on me
|
|
|
|
Fetch me a cannon ball
|
|
Now take me on down the line
|
|
May bag is sinkin' low
|
|
And I believe it's about time
|
|
To get in touch with me
|
|
You know she's the one
|
|
He said, "Honey, regards for everyone."
|
|
|
|
Take a load off Fanny
|
|
Take a load for free
|
|
Take a load off Fanny
|
|
And (and) (and) put the weight on me
|
