Uncle Kracker - The weight lyrics
[Uncle Kracker - 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, and "No!"
Was all he said
Take a load off Fanny, take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny, 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 m'friend can stick around"
Go down, Miss Moses
There's nothin' you can say
It's just ol' Luke
And Luke's waitin' on the Judgement Day
"Well, Luke, my friend
What about young Anna Lee?"
He said, "Do me a favor, son
Woncha stay an' keep Anna Lee company?"
Crazy Chester followed me
And he caught me in the fog
He said, "I will fix your
Rack, 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"
Catch a cannon ball now
T'take me down the line
My bag is sinkin' 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
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, and "No!"
Was all he said
Take a load off Fanny, take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny, 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 m'friend can stick around"
Go down, Miss Moses
There's nothin' you can say
It's just ol' Luke
And Luke's waitin' on the Judgement Day
"Well, Luke, my friend
