Today's Earworm

The Weight

The Band

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
When 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"

Take a load off Fanny, 
take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny, 
and you put the load right on me

Go down, Miss Moses, 
ain't nothin' you can say
It's just old Luke, and Luke's 
waiting on the judgment day
Well, Luke, my friend, 
what about young Annalee
He said, "Do me a favor, son, 
won't you stay and keep Annalee company"

Take a load off Fanny, 
take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny, 
and you put the load right on me

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 okay, boy, 
won't you feed him when you can"

Take a load off Fanny, 
take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny, 
and you put the load right on me

Catch the 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

Take a load off Fanny, 
take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny, 
and you put the load right on me

    Every morning I wake up with a different song in my head.  Here are the lyrics of some of those songs...
