The Weight (with Jimmy Barnes) |
I pulled into Nazareth |
Was feelin' '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 |
Take a load off Fanny |
Take a load for free |
Take a load off Fanny |
And… and… and… |
You put the load, put the load right on me |
I picked up my bags |
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 'No, I’ve got to 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, put the load right on me |
Go down Miss Moses, there’s nothin' that you can say It’s just old Luke, |
and Luke’s waitin' on the judgement 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, put the load right on me |
Crazy Chester followed me, and he caught me in the fog He said 'I'll fix your |
rack if you’ll take Jack my dog' I said 'Wait a minute Chester, you know I’m a |
peacful 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… and… and… |
You put the load, put the load right on me |
Get your cannonball now to take me down the et your 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 |
