Lyrics The Weight - Jimmy Barnes , The Badloves

I pulled into Nazareth, I was feelin′ about a half past dead
I just need a 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, and "No!", was all he said
Take a load off Fanny, take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny, and, and, and, and you can put the load right on me (you can put the load right on me)
I picked up my bags, I went lookin' for a place to hide
When I saw oh Carmen and the Devil walkin′ side by side
I said, "Hey, Carmen, come on, let's go downtown."
She said, "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, and, and, and, and you can put the load right on me (you can put the load right on me)
Why don't you
Go down, Miss Moses, there aint nothin′ you can say
It′s just ol' Luke, and Luke′s waitin' on the Judgement Day
"Hey, Luke, my friend, what about young Anna Lee?"
He said, "Do me a favor, boy, woncha stay an′ keep Anna Lee company?"
Take a load off Fanny, take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny, and, and, and, and you can put the load right on me, hey (you can put the load right on me)
Crazy Chester followed me, and he caught me in the fog
He said, "I will see your rack, if you'll take Jack, my dog"
But I said, "No wait a minute, Chester, you know I′m a peaceful man"
He said, "That's okay just feed him when you can"
Take a load off Fanny, take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny, and, and, and, and you can put the load right on me (you can put the load right on me)
Ooh, ooh, right on me
Come on now
Ohoh
I catch a cannon ball now, that'll take me down the line
My bag is sinkin′ low and I do believe it′s time
To get back to Miss Fanny, you know she's the only one
Who sent me here with her regards for everyone
Take a load off Fanny, take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny, and, and, and, and you can put the load right on me (you can put the load right on me)
Ooh ooh, right on me, yeah
