Band, The - The Last Waltz Suite: The Weight Lyrics
I pulled into Nazareth, feelin' about half past dead
I just need to find a place where I can lay my head
"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 a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
And (and) (and) you put the load right on me
(You put the load right on me)
I picked up my bags and went lookin' for a place to hide
When I saw old Carmen and the Devil walkin' 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 a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
And (and, and) you put the load right on me
(You put the load right on me)
Go down, Moses, there's nothin' that you can say
'Cause that's old Luke and Luke waitin' on the Judgment Day
"Hey, 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 a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
And (and, and) you put the load right on me
(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 old Jack, my dog."
I said, "Wait a minute, Chester, I'm a peaceful man."
He said, "That's OK. Won't you feed him whenever you can?"
Yeah, take a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
And (and, and) you put the load right on me
(You put the load right on me)
Catch a cannon ball, take me down the line
My bag is sinkin' low and I do believe it is just about time
To get back to Miss Fanny, you know she's the only one
She sent me here with her regards for everyone
Take a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
And (and, and) you put the load right on me
(You put the load right on me)

Band, The The Last Waltz Suite: The Weight Comments
Sad that Robertson had the temerity to claim sole right for music and lyrics, as Levon Helms said it was a collaboration and credit should have gone to the whole band
It sucks, but I guess it's just as well, as he's the last member left alive.
One of the greatest songs ever
