I pulled into Nazareth, was feelin' about half past dead
I just need some place where I can lay my head
Hey, mister, can you tell me where a man might find a bed?
He just grinned and shook my hand, No, was all he said
Take a load off Annie, take a load for free
Take a load off Annie and
(And, and)
You can put the load right on me
I picked up my bag, I went lookin' for a place to hide
When I saw Carmen and the Devil walkin' side by side
I said, Hey, Carmen, come on, lets go downtown"
She said, "I gotta go but my friends can stick around"
Take a load off Annie, take a load for free
Take a load off Annie and
(And, and)
You can put the load right on me
Go down, Miss Moses, aint nothin you can say
Its just ol Luke, and Lukes waitin on the Judgement Day
Well, Luke, my friend, what about young Anna Lee?
He said, "Do me a favor, son, woncha stay an keep Anna Lee company?
Take a load off Annie, take a load for free
Take a load off Annie and
(And, and)
You can put the load right on me
Crazy Chester followed me and he caught me in the fog
He said, I will fix your ride, if you'll take Jack, my dog"I said, "Wait a minute, Chester, you know Im a peaceful man
He said, That's okay, baby, won't you feed him when you can?
Take a load off Annie, take a load for free
Take a load off Annie and
(And, and)
You can put the load right on me
Catch a cannon ball goin' take me down the line
My bag is sinkin' low and I do believe it's time
To get back to Miss Anne, you know she's the only one
Who let me here with her regards for everyone
