My Name Is Earl movie - The Weight lyrics

rate me

I pulled into Nazareth, was feelin' about half past dead;<br>

I just need some place where I can lay my head.<br>

"Hey, mister, can you tell me where a man might find a bed?"<br>

He just grinned and shook my hand, and "No!", was all he said.<br>

<br>

<br>

(Chorus:)<br>

Take a load off Fanny, take a load for free;<br>

Take a load off Fanny, And (and) (and) you can put the load right on me.<br>

<br>

I picked up my bag, I went lookin' for a place to hide;<br>

When I saw Carmen and the Devil walkin' side by side.<br>

I said, "Hey, Carmen, come on, let's go downtown."<br>

She said, "I gotta go, but m'friend can stick around."<br>

<br>

(Chorus)<br>

<br>

Go down, Miss Moses, there's nothin' you can say<br>

It's just ol' Luke, and Luke's waitin' on the Judgement Day.<br>

"Well, Luke, my friend, what about young Anna Lee?"<br>

He said, "Do me a favor, son, woncha stay an' keep Anna Lee company?"<br>

<br>

(Chorus)<br>

<br>

Crazy Chester followed me, and he caught me in the fog.<br>

He said, "I will fix your rack, if you'll take Jack, my dog."<br>

I said, "Wait a minute, Chester, you know I'm a peaceful man."<br>

He said, "That's okay, boy, won't you feed him when you can."<br>

<br>

(Chorus)<br>

<br>

Catch a cannon ball now, t'take me down the line<br>

My bag is sinkin' low and I do believe it's time.<br>

To get back to Miss Fanny, you know she's the only one.<br>

Who sent me here with her regards for everyone.<br>

<br>

(Chorus)<br>

<br>
