[00:16.60] Pulled into Nazareth feeling 'bout half past dead
[00:22.47] Just need a place where I can lay my head
[00:28.66] Hey mister can you tell me where a girl might find a bed
[00:34.94] He just grinned shook my hand no was all he said
[00:39.64]
[00:40.77] Take a load off Fanny
[00:43.77] Take a load for free
[00:46.77] Take a load off Fanny
[00:49.86] And put the load right on me
[00:56.51]
[01:08.70] I picked up my bag I went lookin' for a place to hide
[01:14.70] When I saw Carmen and the Devil walkin' side by side
[01:21.07] I said 'Hey Carmen come on let's go downtown'
[01:26.95] She said 'I gotta go but m'friend can stick around'
[01:32.71]
[01:33.34] Take a load off Fanny
[01:36.02] Take a load for free
[01:39.42] Take a load off Fanny
[01:41.80] And put the load right on me
[01:49.63]
[02:00.88] Crazy Chester followed me and he caught me in the fog
[02:06.81] He said I will fix your rack if you'll take Jack my dog
[02:12.82] I said Wait a minute Chester you know I'm a peaceful man
[02:19.00] He said That's okay boy won't you feed him when you can
[02:25.47] Take a load off Fanny
[02:28.17] Take a load for free
[02:30.98] Take a load off Fanny
[02:34.37] And put the load right on me
[02:41.18]
[03:05.76] Go down Miss Moses there's nothin' you can say
[03:10.51]
[03:11.52] It's just ol' Luke and Luke's waitin' for the Judgement Day
[03:17.34] Well Luke my friend what about young Anna Lee
[03:23.45] He said 'Do me a favor son woncha stay an' keep Anna Lee company
[03:28.27]
[03:30.03] Take a load off Fanny
[03:32.52] Take a load for free
[03:35.46] Take a load off Fanny
[03:38.81] And put the load right on me
[03:45.30] Take a load off Fanny
[03:48.06] Take a load for free
[03:51.18] Take a load off Fanny
[03:54.25] And put the load right on me
[04:01.19]
[04:26.05] Catch a cannon ball now t'take me down the line
[04:31.37] My bag is sinkin' low and I do believe it's time
[04:37.18] To get back to Miss Fanny you know she's the only one
[04:43.06]
[04:43.88] Who sent me here with her regards for everyone
[04:49.72] Who sent me here with her regards for everyone
