The Weight (Live at Bill Graham's Fillmore Auditorium, San Francisco, CA - September 1968)

歌詞

I pulled into Nazareth, I was feelin' about 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, and "No!", was all he said. Take a load off Annie, take a load for free; Take a load off Annie, And (and) (and) you can put the load right on me. I picked up my bag, I went lookin' for a place to hide; When I saw Carmen and the Devil walkin' side by side. I said, "Hey, Carmen, come on, let's go downtown." She said, "I gotta go, but my friend can stick around." Take a load off Annie, take a load for free; Take a load off Annie, And (and) (and) you can put the load right on me. <♪> Crazy Chester followed me, and he caught me in the fog. He said, "I will fix your rags, if you'll take Jack, my dog." I said, "Wait a minute, Chester, you know I'm a peaceful man." He said, "That's okay, boy, won't you feed him when you can." Take a load off Annie, take a load for free; Take a load off Annie, And (and) (and) you can put the load right on me. <♪> Catch a Cannonball, now, take me down the line My bag is sinkin' low and I do believe it's time. To get back to Miss Annie you know she's the only one. She sent me here with her regards for everyone. Take a load off Annie, take a load for free; Take a load off Annie, And (and) (and) you can put the load right on me.
