  • Joan Osborne The Weight Lyrics

           

    Pulled into Nazareth, feeling 'bout half past dead
    Just need a place where I can lay my head
    Hey mister can you tell me where a girl might find a bed?
    He just grinned, shook my hand, 'no' was all he said

    Chorus:
    Take a load off Fanny
    Take a load for free
    Take a load off Fanny
    and 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, let's go downtown'
    She said, 'I gotta go, but m'friend can stick around'

    Chorus

    Go down, Miss Moses, there's nothin' you can say
    It's just ol' Luke, and Luke's 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?'

    Chorus

    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'

    Chorus

    Catch a cannon ball now, t'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
