Aretha Franklin - Weight (the) şarkı sözleri

Song: The Weight
Band: Aretha Franklin
Album: 30 Greatest Hits (Disc 1)

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...
