The Weight by Aretha Franklin


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 Carmen in the devil

Walkin side by side

I said hey Carmen

Come on let's go down town

She said I gotta go but my friend can stick around

My bag is sinkin low

I believe that it's about time

To get in touch with Fannie
