I pulled into nazareth, was feelin about half
past dead;
I just need some 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, and no!,
was all he said.
Take a load off fanny, take a load for free;
Take a load off fanny, and (and) (and) you
can 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, lets go
downtown.
She said, I gotta go, but mfriend can stick
around.
Go down, miss moses, theres nothin you can
say
Its just ol luke, and lukes 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?
Crazy chester followed me, and he caught me
in the fog.
He said, I will fix your rack, if youll take
jack, my dog.
I said, wait a minute, chester, you know Im a
peaceful man.
He said, thats okay, boy, wont you feed him
when you can.
Catch a cannon ball now, ttake me down the
line
My bag is sinkin low and I do believe its
time.
To get back to miss fanny, you know shes the
only one.
Who sent me here with her regards for
everyone"
