The Weight - Live At Resch Center, Green Bay, WI / January 21, 2017

I pulled into Nazareth, I was feelin' 'bout half past dead
I just need some place Lord where I can lay my head
Hey, mister, can you tell me, where a man might find a bed?
He shook his head,[?], and "No" was all he said

Take a load off Fanny, take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny, and you put the load right on me

I picked up my bags, I went lookin' for a place to hide
I saw old Carmen and the Devil, walkin' side by side
I said, "Hey, Carmen, c'mon, you know I'm a peaceful man"
"That's okay boy, can you stick around anyhow?"

Take a load off Fanny, take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny, hey put the load right on me

Go down Moses, there ain't nothin' that you can say
It's just like old Luke waitin' and he's waitin' on the judgment day
Oh well, Luke, my friend, say what about old Annalee?
He said, "Do me a favor, and stay and keep Annalee some company"

Oh take a load off Fanny, take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny, and put the load, put the load right on me

Yeah now crazy Chester followed me, and he caught me in the fog
He said, "I'll fix your right, if you'll take Jack, you'll take Jack my dog"
I said, "Wait a minute Chester, you know, you know I'm a peaceful man"
He said, "That's okay, boy, won't you feed him when you can, feed him when you can"

Take a load off Fanny, take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny, and put the load, put the load right on me

I'm gone' catch me a cannonball, and take it on down the line
My head is sinkin' low, and I do believe it's time
To get back to Miss Fanny, you know she's the only one
Who led me here, with her regards for everyone

Take a load off Fanny, take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny, and put the load, put the load right on me
