Irma Thomas - Make Me A Pallet On Your Floor Lyrics

Irma Thomas Lyrics

"Make Me A Pallet On Your Floor"

Make me down a pallet on your floor
Make me down a pallet on your floor
Make me down a pallet, a pallet soft and low
I'm broke and I got nowhere to go

Make me down a pallet on your floor
Make me down a pallet on your floor
Make me down a pallet close behind your door
Make it so my good man will never know

We in the blues everywhere I see
We're in the blues everywhere I see
We're in the blues, honey, everywhere I see
No one ever had the blues like me

Play your guitar, play your guitar, please
Mmm
Yeah, got the blues, baby

Where are all you good time friends of mine?
Where are all you good time friends of mine?
When I had a dollar, oh, you treated me so fine
But where were you when I only had a dime?

Make me down a pallet on your floor
Make me down a pallet on your floor
Make me down a pallet close behind your door
Make it where your woman never goes

Make me down a pallet on the floor
Make me down a pallet on the floor
Make it sweet, make it soft
Make it low behind the door

Make me down a pallet on your floor
Make me down a pallet on the floor
Make it soft, make it sweet
Make it low behind the door

Make me down a pallet on the floor
