Pulled in to Nazareth
I was feeling 'bout half past dead
Looking for a place where
A man could rest his head
"Mister, can you help me
Where a man might find a bed?"
He just smiled and shook my hand
"No" was all he said
Take a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
You put the load right on me
So I went off looking for a place to hide
When I saw ol' Carmen and the Devil walking side by side
I said, "Hey Carmen, come on, let's go downtown"
She said, "Well, I gotta go, but my friend here can stick around"
Take a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
You put the load right on me
I say, "Hey Miss Moses, waitin' on the Judgement Day
It's just ol' Luke, and Luke's still got a lot to say"
I said, "Hey Luke, what about poor Anna Lee?"
He said, "Do me a favor, boy, and stay and keep Anna Lee company"
Take a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
And you put the load right on me, oh
Crazy Chester followed me, and he caught me in the fog
He said, "I will fix your rack, if you'll take Jack, my dog"
I said, "Wait a minute, Chester, you know I'm a peaceful man"
He said, "That's alright, boy, just you feed him when you can"
Take a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
Fanny put the load right on me
Gonna catch a Cannonball, take it down the line
My bag is sinkin' low, and I do believe it's time
To get back to Miss Fanny, she's the only one
Who sent me here with kind regards for everyone
Take a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
And then you put the load, put the load right on me
Put the load on me
I was feeling 'bout half past dead
Looking for a place where
A man could rest his head
"Mister, can you help me
Where a man might find a bed?"
He just smiled and shook my hand
"No" was all he said
Take a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
You put the load right on me
So I went off looking for a place to hide
When I saw ol' Carmen and the Devil walking side by side
I said, "Hey Carmen, come on, let's go downtown"
She said, "Well, I gotta go, but my friend here can stick around"
Take a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
You put the load right on me
I say, "Hey Miss Moses, waitin' on the Judgement Day
It's just ol' Luke, and Luke's still got a lot to say"
I said, "Hey Luke, what about poor Anna Lee?"

Take a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
And then you put the load, put the load right on me
Put the load on me
