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 |
