I pulled into Nazareth, was feeling 'bout 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
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, 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 you put the load right on me
Crazy Chester followed me, and he caught me in the fall
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 me when you can?" Yeah
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 cannonball 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
