Syria Mosque - Pittsburgh
Nov 1970
Levon Helm, Rick Danko, Robbie Robertson, Garth Hudson, Richard Manuel I pulled into nazareth, 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 fanny, take a load for free; Take a load off fanny, 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, lets go downtown. She said, I gotta go, bu
t mfriend can stick around. Go down, miss moses, theres nothin you can say Its just ol luke, and lukes waitin on the judgement day. Well, luke, my friend, what about young anna lee? He said, do me a favor, son, woncha stay an keep anna lee company? Crazy chester followed me, and he caught me in
the fog. He said, I will fix your rack, if youll take jack, my dog. I said, wait a minute, chester, you know Im a peaceful man. He said, thats okay, boy, wont you feed him when you can. Catch a cannon ball now, ttake me down the line My bag is sinkin low and I do believe its time. To get back to mi

The original ... ( 1 week ago by Teach417)
The original release of the album didn't have lyrics on it; if some later release does, the lyrics were probably added by someone whose ears are as bad as yours. I have the original sheet music, published by The Band's own company, and the lyric is "take a load off Fanny."
The young Anna Lee ... ( 1 week ago by Teach417)
The young Anna Lee referred to in the third verse is not the Fanny referred to in the chorus and fifth verse. And actually, the line in the 3rd verse is "what about young Anna Lee?" In the 5th verse, he sings "get back to Miss Fanny," and if you listen at all carefully, in the chorus it's "take a load off Fanny." I have the original sheet music, and that's what it says, and that's what they sing.

Not content with being wrong, you have to go ahead and insult those who are right. Listen to the damn song, fool -- "get back to Miss Fanny." I have the sheet music that was published by The Band. "Take a load off Fanny." In the future, 1) check your facts, and 2) grow up enough to show some courtesy to those who are better informed than you.

I must join in...it is Fannie. The guy that says it must be Annie because of the coment about Keep Annie Lee Company, well he is even wrong on that part. It's "Stay and keep Ana Lee company. Ana and Annie arent the same.

Wow. Listen to the song people, or look it up, or read a post by someone who knows what they are talking about. It is Fanny...duh. If you can't hear the chorus clearly, then listen to the last verse when he sings "To get back to Miss Fanny, you know she's the only one. Who sent me here with her regards for everyone." You can hear it clearly there. I hope all of you who think it is Annie take a moment to listen, and then feel dumb.

The song is about doing a small favor for someone,it gets screwed up and you end up doing a bunch of stuff for everyone else, and then you wonder how you got there. He went to Nazereth to give regards for Miss Fannie or Annie( it changes in the song) and of course in the song you hear that gets all complicated from there.Case in point, "The road to hell is paved with good intentions" Lets not argue over one of the greatest songs ever written.
