Aretha Franklin - The Weight


I pulled into Nazareth
I was feelin? bout a half past dead (dead)
I just need some place
Where I can lay my head (head)
?Hey mister can you tell me where a girl might find a bed??
(Can ya tell me?)
He just grinned and shook my hand
And ?no? was all he said

Take a load off Fannie
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fannie
Then hey-yea-yea
Put the weight on me!

I picked up my bag
I went lookin? for a place to hide
When I saw comin? in the devil
Walkin? side by side
I said ?they comin?
Come on let?s go down town?
She said ?I gotta go but my friend can stick around?

Take a load off Fannie
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fannie
Then hey, an yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
(Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo)

Go down Moses
There?s nothin? that-a you can say
(Ooo-ooo)
It?s just like all of us waitin?
Waitin? for the judgement day
(Woo-ooo)
Well Luke my friend
What about Annalee?
(Doo-ooo-ooo)
He said ?Do me a favor?
?Stay and keep Annalee some company?

(Take a load off Fannie
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fannie)
Well-ell yeah
Put the weight on me

(Yeah-yeah-yeah)
Catch me a cannonball
And that?ll take me on down the line
(Yeah)
My bag is circulin?
I believe that it?s about time
(You said it girl)
To get in touch with Fannie
You know she?s the one
(Yeah)
Who said ?Mickey
Is there a god forever one??
Yeah!

(Take a load off Fannie
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fannie
Take a load for free
FADES-
Take a load off Fannie
Take a load...
