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 you 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 [bad word] #39; in the devil
Walkin' side by side

She said I gotta go but my friend can stick around

Take a load off Fannie

Waitin' for the judgement day
