Bob Dylan – The Weight Lyrics  Share

From Bob Dylan's album: Before The Flood

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.

[Chorus:]
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."

[Chorus]

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?"

[Chorus]

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."

[Chorus]

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.

[Chorus]
