Take a load off, Annie
You put the load right on me
Crazy Chester followed me
He said, ' I will fix your rack'
I pulled my sack of potatoes
Take a load off, Fanny
You put the load right on me.
Crazy Chester.
He said, ' You know, Annie.'
I pulled my sack.
Put the load right on me.
Take a load off, Annie.
Take a load off.
You know, Annie.
