Lyrics The Last Waltz Suite: The Weight - The Staples , The Band
*Levon
Helm*
I
pulled
into
Nazareth,
Feeling
′bout
half
past
death.
I
just
need
to
find
a
place,
Where
I
can
lay
my
head.
Mister
can
you
tell
me
where,
a
man
may
find
a
bed?
He
just
grinned
and
shook
my
hand,
"No"
was
all
he
said.
*Everyone*
Take
a
load
off
Fanny,
Take
a
load
for
free.
Take
a
load
off
Fanny,
And,
(and),
(and),
You
put
the
load
right
on
me!
(Right
on
me...)
*Female
singer*
I
picked
up
my
bag,
And
went
lookin'
for
a
place
to
hide...
When
I
saw
Carmen
and
the
Devil,
Walking
side
by
side...
I
said
"Hey
Carmen!
C′mon,
let's
go
downtown"
She
said,
"I
gotta
go,
but
my
friend
can
stick
around"
*Everyone*
Take
a
load
off
Fanny,
Take
a
load
for
free.
Take
a
load
off
Fanny,
And,
(and),
(and),
You
put
the
load
right
on
me!
(Right
on
me...)
*Male
singer*
Go
down,
Moses,
There's
nothin′
you
can
say,
Cause
it′s
just
ol'
Luke,
And
Luke′s
been
waitin'
on
the
judgement
day.
"Hey
Luke
my
friend,
what
about
young
Anna
Lee?"
He
said,
"Do
me
a
favour
son,
won′t
you
stay
and
keep
Anna
Lee
in
company?"
*Everyone*
Take
a
load
off
Fanny,
Take
a
load
for
free,
Take
a
load
off
Fanny,
And,
(and),
(and),
You
put
the
load
right
on
me!
(Right
on
me...)
*Rick
Danko*
Crazy
Chester
followed
me,
And
he
caught
me
in
the
fog.
He
said
"I
will
fix
your
rack,
if
you
take
old
Jack
my
dog,"
I
said,
"Wait
a
minute
Chester,
I'm
a
peaceful
man,"
He
said
"That′s
okay,
won't
you
feed
him,
whenever
you
can?"
(Ohhhhhh)
*Everyone*
Take
a
load
off
Fanny,
Take
a
load
for
free,
Take
a
load
off
Fanny,
And,
(and),
(and),
You
put
the
load
right
on
me!
(Right
on
me...)
*Solo*
Catch
a
cannon
ball,
To
take
me
all
down
the
line.
My
bag
is
sinkin'
low,
And
I
do
believe
that
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),
Put
the
load
right
on
me!
(Right
on
me...)
