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 and and you put the load right on me
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 and and you put the load right on me
You put the load right on me
Go down Miss Moses there's nothin' you can say
It's just old 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't you stay and keep
Anna Lee company
Take a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
And and 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 take Jack my dog
I said
Wait a minute Chester
You know I'm a peaceful man
He said
That's OK boy won't
You feed him when you can
Yeah take a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
And and and you put the load right on me
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 and and you put the load right on me
You put the load right on me
