Weight, The
main lyrics
I pulled into Nazareth, was feeling 'bout half past dead
I just need someplace 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

[CHORUS]
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"

[CHORUS]

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, won't you stay and keep Anna Lee company?"

[CHORUS]

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?"

[CHORUS]

Catch a cannonball, 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

[CHORUS]
