[00:10.94] | I pulled into Nazareth, |
[00:13.39] | I was feelin'about half past dead; |
[00:16.39] | I just need some place where I can lay my head. |
[00:22.04] | "Hey,mister,can you tell me where a man might find a bed?" |
[00:27.44] | He just grinned and shook my hand, |
[00:30.40] | and "No!",was all he said. |
[00:33.70] | Take a load off Fannie, |
[00:36.45] | take a load for free; |
[00:39.30] | Take a load off Fannie, |
[00:42.15] | And (and)(and)you can put the load right on me. |
[00:50.45] | I picked up my bag, |
[00:52.60] | I went lookin'for a place to hide; |
[00:56.15] | When I saw Carmen and the Devil walkin'side by side. |
[01:01.03] | I said,"Hey,Carmen,come on,let's go downtown." |
[01:07.15] | She said,"I gotta go,but m'friend can stick around." |
[01:13.00] | Take a load off Fannie, |
[01:15.70] | take a load for free; |
[01:18.55] | Take a load off Fannie, |
[01:21.96] | And (and)(and)you can put the load right on me. |
[01:32.01] | Go down,Miss Moses,there's nothin'you can say |
[01:35.16] | It's just ol'Luke, |
[01:37.06] | and Luke's waitin'on the Judgement Day. |
[01:40.96] | "Well,Luke,my friend,what about young Anna Lee?" |
[01:46.45] | He said,"Do me a favor, |
[01:48.45] | son,woncha stay an'keep Anna Lee company?" |
[01:52.15] | Take a load off Fannie, |
[01:54.71] | take a load for free; |
[01:57.26] | Take a load off Fannie, |
[02:00.31] | And (and)(and)you can put the load right on me. |
[02:13.11] | Catch a Cannonball,now,t'take me down the line |
[02:19.86] | My bag is sinkin'low and I do believe it's time. |
[02:24.66] | To get back to Miss Annie, |
[02:28.31] | you know she's the only one. |
[02:31.36] | Who sent me here with her regards for everyone. |
[02:36.21] | Take a load off Fannie, |
[02:39.01] | take a load for free; |
[02:41.71] | Take a load off Fannie, |
[02:44.61] | And (and)(and)you can put the load right on me. |
