I pulled in to Nazareth, I was feeling about half past dead.
A                  C#m       D             A

I picked up my bag.  I went looking for a place to hide.
A           C#m            D                     A
When I saw Carmen and the Devil walking side by side.

It's just old Luke, and Luke's waiting on the Judgement day.
 A                C#m          D               A
"Well, Luke, my friend, what about young Anna Lee?"
 A                 C#m                    D

 A              C#m              D                 A
To get back to Miss Fanny. You know she's the only one
  A          C#m             D             A
Who sent me here with her regards for everyone.
