Make me down a pallet on your floor Make me down Make me a pallet down, soft and low Make me a pallet on your floor Oh make me down Make me down Make me a pallet down, soft and low Make me a pallet on your floor Up the country Up the country by the cold sleet and snow I'm going up the country By the cold sleet and slow No telling how much further I may go Oh make me down, make me down Make me a pallet down, soft and low Make me a pallet on your floor Well, sleeping, my back and shoulders tire Way I'm sleeping, my back and shoulders tire The way I'm sleeping, my back and shoulders tired Gonna turn over and try it on the side Oh make me down, make me down Make me a pallet down, soft and low Make me a pallet on your floor Don't you let my good girl catch you here Please don't let my good girl catch you here Oh she might shoot you Might cut and starve you too No telling what she might do Oh make me down Make me down a pallet on your floor Make me a pallet down, soft and low Make me a pallet on your floor
