| Lyrics: | I pulled into Nazareth, was feeling 'bout 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 Fanny, take a load for free
Take a
load off Fanny, and you put the load right on me
I picked up my bags, I went looking for a
place to hide
Then I saw old Carmen and the devil walking side by side
I said, "Hey
Carmen, c'mon, let's go downtown"
She said, "I gotta go, but my friend can stick
around"
Chorus
Go down, Miss moses, ain't nothin you can say
It's just
old Luke, and Luke's waiting on judgement day
Well, Luke, my friend, what about young
Annalee
He said, "Do me a favor, so, won't you stay and keep Annalee
comapany"
Chorus
Crazy Chester followed me, and he caught me in the
fog
said, "I will fix your rag, if you'll take Jack, my dog"
I said, "Wait a minute
Chester-you know, I'm a peaceful man"
He said, "That's ok, boy, won't you feed him when you
can"
Chorus
Get you cannonball, now to take me down the line
My bag is
sinking low, and I do believe it's time
To get back to miss Fanny, you know she's the only
one
Who sent me here, with her regards for everyone
Chorus |
