Letra de 'The Weight' de Jeff Healey

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 Fannie, take a load for free
Take a load off Fannie, And (and) (and) you can put the load right 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 m'friend can stick around

Take a load off Fannie, take a load for free
Take a load off Fannie, And (and) (and) you can put the load right on me

Go down, Miss Moses, there's nothin' you can say
It's just ol' 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, woncha stay an' keep Anna Lee company?

Take a load off Fannie, take a load for free
Take a load off Fannie, And (and) (and) you can put the load right on me

Crazy Chester followed me, and he caught me in the fog
He said: I will fix your rags, 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

Take a load off Fannie, take a load for free
Take a load off Fannie, And (and) (and) you can put the load right on me

Catch a Cannonball, now, t'take me down the line
My bag is sinkin' low and I do believe it's time
To get back to Miss Annie, you know she's the only one
Who sent me here with her regards for everyone
