I pulled into Nazareth, I 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
girl
might
find
a
bed?
He just grinned and shook my hand, and No, was all he said
Take a load off Annie, take a load off for free
Take a load off Annie and hey, yeah
Put the weight 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,
lets go downtown"
She said, "I gotta go, but my friend can stick around"
Take a load off Annie, take a load off for free
Take a load off Annie and yeah, and yeah yeah yeah yeah
Put the weight on me
Go down, Moses, theres
nothin that you can say
Its
just
like
ol Luke waitin,
waitin on Judgment Day
"Well, Luke, my friend, what about Anna Lee?"
He said, "Do me a favor, stay an
keep
Anna
Lee
some
company
Take a load off Annie, take a load off for free
Take a load off Annie and and and yeah
Put the weight on me
Catch me a cannon ball, now take me on down the line
My bag is sinkin' low, and I believe that it's about time
You said to get in touch with Annie, you know she's the one
Who sent me here with her regards for everyone
Take a load off Annie, take a load off for free
Take a load off Annie, take a load off for free
Take a load off Annie
