Song : The weight
 
Original performer: the band

I pulled into 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 the 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 the 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
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 the 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."

Take the load off fanny, take a load for free;
Take a load off fanny, and you put the load right
on me.

Catch a cannon ball now, 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 the load off fanny, take a load for free;
Take a load off fanny, and you put the load right
on me.
