The Weight - 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 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
