Little Feat. Feat. Bela Fleck & Mike Utley The Weight lyrics

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, no was all he said

Take a load off Annie, take a load for free
Take a load off Annie 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, let's go downtown"
She said, "I gotta go, but my friends can stick around"

Take a load off Annie, take a load for free
Take a load off Annie and
(And, and)
You can put the load right on me

Go down, Miss Moses, ain't nothin' you can say
It's just ol' Luke and Luke's waitin' on the judgment day
Well Luke, my friend, what about young Anna Lee?
He said, "Do me a favor, son

Woncha stay an' keep Anna Lee company?"

Take a load off Annie, take a load for free
Take a load off Annie and
(And, and)
You can put the load right on me

Crazy Chester followed me, and he caught me in the fog
He said, "I will fix your ride, 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 a load off Annie, take a load for free
Take a load off Annie and
(And, and)
You can put the load right on me

Catch a cannon ball goin' take me down the line
My bag is sinkin' low and I do believe it's time
To get back to Miss Anne, you know she's the only one
Who let me here with her regards for everyone
