THE WEIGHT Testo

I pulled into Nazareth I 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 And "no" was all he said Take a load off Fanny Take a load for free Take a load off Fanny And put the load 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 put the load right on me Go down, Moses There ain't nothin you can't say It's just Ol' Luke And Luke's waitin' on the Judgment Day "Well Luke, my friend, What about Anna Lee?" He said, "Do me a favor And keep Anna Lee company" Take a load off Fanny Take a load for free Take a load off Fanny And put the load right on me Crazy Chester followed me And he caught me having a ball He said, "I will fix your ride If you'll take Jack, my dog" I said, "Wait a minute Chester, You know I'm a feeble man" 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 put the load right on me Fetch a cannon ball Now take me on 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 put the load right on me
