paroles de chanson The Weight (feat. Robbie Robertson, Ringo Starr, Lukas Nelson & Mermans Mosengo) - Robbie Robertson , Ringo Starr , Playing for Change

Pulled into Nazareth
I was feelin' about half past dead
I just need some place
Where I could 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 fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off fanny
And you 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 to town
She said, I gotta go, but my friend can stick around

Take a load off fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off fanny
And you put the load right on me

Go down, Miss Moses
There's nothin' you can say
It's just ol' Luke
And Luke's waitin' on the Judgment Day
Well, Luke, my friend, what about young Anna Lee
He said, do me a favor son
Won't you 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

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 okay boy
Won't you feed him when you can

Yeah, take a load off fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off fanny
And you put the load right on me

Catch a cannon ball now
To take me down the line
My bag is sinkin' low
And I do believe it's time
To get me back to Miss Fanny
You know she's the only one
Who sent me here
With her regards to everyone

Take a load off fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off fanny
And you put the load right on me
