The Weight Songtext
von Rotary Connection

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 me

Picked 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 like 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 me

And take a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
You put the load right on me

Take a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
You put the load right on me...

Take a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
You put the load right on me...
