Make me a pallet on your floor

Make me a pallet on your floor

Make it soft, make it low, so your woman don't know

Make me a pallet on your floor.

Come all you good time friends of mine,

Come all you good time friends of mine.

When I had ten dollars, you treated me so fine

Where were you when I only had a dime.

Come on and make me a pallet on your floor

Make me a pallet on your floor

Make it soft, make it low, so your woman don't know

Make me a pallet on your floor.

I'll be more than satisfied,

If I could catch one train to ride

But if I reach Atlanta with no place to go,

Please make me a pallet on your floor

Make me a pallet on your floor

Make me a pallet on your floor

Make it soft, make it low, so your woman don't know

Make me a pallet on your floor.

I'm gonna make you a red-hot meal

Gonna make you a red-hot meal

To show you I appreciate all that you have done

When you make me a pallet on your floor.

Come on and make me a pallet on your floor

Make me a pallet on your floor

Make it soft, make it low, so your woman don't know

Make me a pallet on your floor.
