I pulled into Nazareth

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 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 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 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

Go down Miss Moses

There's nothin' you can 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 son

Won'tcha 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

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 sinkin' 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
