I pulled into Nazareth, was feelin' about half past dead
I just need to find a place where I can lay my head
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 put the load right on me
I picked up my bag, I went lookin' for a place to hide
When I saw old Carmen and the Devil walkin' side by side
I said, Hey,
Carmen,
come
on
lets go downtown"
She said, "I gotta go but my friend can stick around"
Take a load off, Annie
Take a load for free
Take a load off, Annie
And (and) (and) you put the load right on me
Go down, Moses, theres
nothin that you can say
Cause its
ol Luke and Lukes
waitin on the Judgment Day
"Hey, Luke, my friend, what about young Anna Lee?"
He said, "Do me a favor, son,
wontcha
stay
and
keep
Anna
Lee
company?
Take a load off, Annie
Take a load for free
Take a load off, Annie
And (and) (and) you put the load right on me
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"
He said, Thats okay, wont
you
feed
him
when
you
can
Yeah, take a load off, Annie
Take a load for free
Take a load off, Annie
And (and) (and) you put the load right on me
Catch a cannon ball take me all down the line
My bag is sinkin' low and I do believe it is time
To get back to Miss Fanny, you know she's the only one
She sent me here with her regards for everyone
Take a load off, Annie
Take a load for free
Take a load off, Annie
And (and) (and) you put the load right on me
