The Weight lyrics - Michael Bolton, B.D. Wong & Scott Adsit

(originally by The Band)

(from "The Weight" soundtrack)

I pulled into Nazareth, was feeling 'bout half past dead

I just need someplace 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

Take a load off Fanny, take a load for free

Take a load off Fanny

And (and, and) you put the load right on me

I picked up my bags, I went looking for a place to hide

When I saw Carmen and the Devil walking side by side

I said "Hey Carmen, come on let's go downtown?"

And she said "I gotta go but my friends will stick around"

And you can take a load off Fanny, take a load for free

Take a load off Fanny

And (and, and)

And you can take a load off Fanny, take a load for free

Take a load off Fanny

And (and, and) you put the load right on me
