I know that I'd be satisfied
If I could hop that train and ride
If I make Atlanta with no place to go
Make me one pallet on your floor
Make me a pallet on your floor
Make it right down by the door
Make it long, make it low
So my good gal won't never know
Make me a pallet on your floor
Give everybody my regards
I'm goin' if I have to ride the rods
And if I make Atlanta with no place to go
Make me a pallet on your floor
You hear me now, make me a pallet on your floor
Make it right down by the door
Make it long, make it low
So my good gal won't never know
Make me a little pallet right down on your floor
Make it down on the floor for me (spoken)
I'm said I'm tired and I can't work no more
You know I'm tired and I can't work no more
Well, I'm tired, lonesome, weary, and I can't work no more
Pretty baby now, make me a little pallet right down on your floor
Yeah now, make me a pallet on your floor
Well make it right down by the door
Make it long, make it low
So my good gal won't never know
Make me a pallet on your one more time now
Make me a pallet on your floor
Yeah make it right down by the door
Make it long, make it low
So my good gal won't never know
Make me one pallet on your floor, floor, floor, whoa whoa
