(1)I pulled in to Nazareth, I was feeling about half past dead.
(2)I picked up my bag.  I went looking for a place to hide.
(3)Go down, Miss Moses, there`s nothing you can say.
(4)Crazy Chester followed me and he caught me in the fog.
(5)Get your Canonball now, to take me down the line.

G                Bm             C                       G
I just need some place where I can lay my head.
When I saw Carmen and the devil walking side by side.
It`s just old Luke, and Luke`s waiting on the judgement day.
He said, I will fix your rack, if you`ll take Jack my dog.
My bag is sinking low, and I do believe it`s time

G                Bm             C                       G
Hey, Mister, can you tell me where a man might find a bed?
I said, Hey, Carmen, come on. Let`s go downtown.
Well, Luke, my friend, what about young Anna Lee?
I said,Wait a minute, Chester. You know I`m a peaceful man.
To get back to Miss Fanny.  You know she`s the only one

G                Bm             C                       G
He just grinned, shook my hand, No was all he said.
She said, I got to go, but my friend can stick around.
He said, Do me a favor, son, won`t you stay and keep Anna Lee company.
He said, That`s okay, boy.  Won`t you feed him when you can?
Who sent me here with her regards for everyone.

chorus

G      G/F       C
Take a load off, Fanny.
G      G/F       C
Take a load for free.
G      G/F       C      
Take a load off, Fanny.
G C                                  G   G/F   Em   D   C
     And  you put the load right on me.
