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]
