Doc Watson - Make Me a Pallet on the Floor lyrics

Honey, make me down a pallet on your floor

Make me down a pallet on your floor

Honey, make it down, make it soft and low

Then maybe my good gal she won't know

I'm goin' up the country through the sleedin' snow

Goin' up the country through the sleedin' snow

I'm goin' up the country through the sleedin' snow

Ain't no telling just how fur I'll go

I get my breakfast here and my dinner in Tennessee

Get my breakfast here and my dinner in Tennessee

I get my breakfast here and my dinner in Tennessee

I told you I's a-commin' soon, you'd better look for me

(break)

Honey, I can't lay down on your bed

You know that I can't lay down on your bed

Yes, you know that I can't lay down 'cross your pretty bed

'cause my good woman she might kill me dead

And don't you let my good gal catch you here

No don't you let my good gal catch you here

Doo, she might shoot you, cut and stump you too

Ain't no tellin' what o' she might do

Ooh, make me down a pallet on your floor

Make me down a pallet on your floor

Honey, make it down, make it soft and low

Then maybe my good gal she won't know

Now the way I've been sleepin' my back and shoulders' tired

The way I've been sleepin' my back and shoulders' tired

The way I've been sleepin' my back and shoulders' tired

Thinking goin' turn over, tryin' sleepin' on my side

Ooh , make me down a pallet on your floor

Make me down a pallet on your floor

Honey, make it down, make it soft and low

Then maybe my good gal she won't know

(Make that pallet, honey)
