| [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. |
