Make me down a pallet on your floor Make me down a pallet on your floor Make me down a pallet soft and low When I’m broke and I got nowhere to go
Been hanging ’round with a good-time friends of mine Hanging around with a good-time friends of mine Oh, they treat me very nice and kind When I’ve got a dollar and a dime
Weary blues everywhere I see Weary blues everywhere I see Weary blues, honey, everywhere I see No one ever had the blues like me
Way I’m sleeping, my back and shoulders tired Way I’m sleeping, my back and shoulders tired Come tomorrow, I’ll be satisfied If I can catch that fast train and ride
So, make me down a pallet on your floor Make me down a pallet on your floor Make me down a pallet soft and low I’m broke and I got nowhere to go
