I pulled into Nazareth

Was feeling about 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

You put the load right on me

Go down Miss Moses

There's nothing you can say

It's just ol 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

Wongtcha 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

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 a 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

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

You put the load right on me
