Karaoké The Weight Jimmy Barnes & The Badloves

I pulled into Nazareth

I was feelin' 'bout half past dead

Just needed 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 Fannie

Take a load for free

Take a load off Fannie

And put the load right on right on me ooh ooh

I picked up my bags and went lookin' for a place to hide

When I saw ol' Carmel and the devil walkin' side by side

I said hey Carmel come on let's go downtown

She said I gotta go but my friend here can stay around

Take a load off Fannie

Take a load for free

Take a load off Fannie

And put the load right on right on me why don't ya?

Go down miss Moses ain't nothin' you can say

It's just ol' Luke

Luke is waitin' on a judgement day

Hey Luke my friend what about young Anna-Lee?

He said do me a favour boy won't you stay and keep Anna-Lee company?

Take a load off Fannie

Take a load for free

Take a load off Fannie

And put the load right on right on me

Yeah crazy Chester followed me and he caught me in the fall

He said I'll see you right if you take on jack my dog

But I said no wait a minute Chester no I'm a peaceful man

He said that's okay just feed him when you can

Take a load off Fannie

Take a load for free

Take a load off Fannie

And put the load right on right on me

Ooh ooh right on me oh

Oh oh

I'll catch a cannonball now to take me down the line

My bag is sinking low

I don't believe it's time

To get back to Miss Annie you know she's the only one

Who sent me here? will her regards to everyone

Take a load off Fannie

Take a load for free

Take a load off Fannie

And put the load right on right on me

Ooh ooh right on me

Yeah hey
