If you go down round the bend in the river You’re gonna find a few changes Been going down there ‘Cause the people who live Round the bend in the river Have forgotten their dreams And they’ve cut off their hair chorus: And take a last, flying look At the last lonely eagle He’s soaring the length of the land Shed a tear for the fate Of the last lonely eagle For you know that he never will land If you go down where the lights Push the nighttime Back far enough so you can’t feel the fear Remember the boy who you left on the mountain Who’s sitting alone with the stars and his tears chorus: If you go down to the gas-powered flatland Where most of the people just think That they’re free Remember the peace that you had On the mountain Come back to the love that you had here with me chorus tag: For you know that he never will land |

I pulled in to 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 bag, I went looking for a place to hide When I saw Carmen and the Devil walking 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, Fanny, take a load for free Take a load off, Fanny and you put the load right on me. Go down Miss Moses, there's nothing you can say It's just old Luke and Luke's waiting on the judgement day 'Well, Luke my friend, what about young Anna-Lee ?' He said 'Do me a favour son, won't you stay and keep Anna-Lee 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 He said 'I will fix your rat if you'll take Jack my dog' I said 'Wait a minute Chester, you know I'm a peaceful man' He said 'That's OK boy, won't you feed him when you can ?'. Yeah, take a load off, Fanny, take a load for free Take a load off, Fanny and you put the load right on me. Catch a 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. |

If you'll share the road with me I'll walk along with you We can go anywhere you want, do whatever we want to do We can run and laugh or hide and seek, stay awhile or fly and freak It's all up to you. If you'll share the air with you, I'll tell you what I see Butterflies are in the skies and the leaves are on the tree And Superman is flying by, he won't say how he gets that high If you don't believe. Then if you share your high with me, I'll give mine to you And we can try on love for size, it grows from one to two We can try some loving, honey, you and me, you know, loving, it can set us free And we can share the world. If you'll share the road with me, I'll walk along with you We can go anywhere you want, do whatever you want to do Run and laugh or hide and seek, stay awhile or fly and freak It's all up to you. |
