Blues Traveler The Weight Lyrics:
Original Performer: The Band

I pulled into Nazareth, was feeling bout half past
dead; I just need a place where I can 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 the 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 looking for a place to
hide; when I saw Carmen and the devil walking side
by side. I said "Hey Carmen, come on, let's
go downtown." She said "I gotta go, but
my friend can stick around."

Take the 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 nothing you can say

It's just old Luke, and Luke's waiting 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 the 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."

Take the 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, take me down the line. My
bag is sinking 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 the load off Fanny, take a load for free;
Take a load off Fanny, and you put the load right
on me.
