Make Me A Pallet On Your Floor
Journey Through Longing: Make Me A Pallet's Yearning Tale
Lyrics
Well make me down a pallet on your floor
Request to create a makeshift bed on the floor
Make me down a pallet on your floor
Repetition of the request for a pallet on the floor
Make me a pallet down, soft and low
Desire for a soft and low pallet to be made
Make me a pallet on your floor
Reiteration of the request for a pallet on the floor
Up to country twenty miles or more
Heading to the countryside, at least twenty miles away
Going up to country twenty miles or more
Repetition of the intention to go to the countryside
Going up to country where the cold, sleet and snow
Destination in the country with cold weather and precipitation
No tellin' how much further I might go
Uncertain about how much farther the journey might extend
Well make me down a pallet on your floor
Repetition of the request for a pallet on the floor
Make me down a pallet on your floor
Continuation of the request for a pallet on the floor
Make me a pallet close behind your door
Request to make the pallet close to the door
Make it where your good man never goes, now
Suggesting to place the pallet where the partner's good man doesn't go
Oh, my good gal catch you here
Warning about the presence of another person's partner
Don't you let my good gal catch you here
Advising not to get caught by the speaker's good gal
She, might shoot you, might cut and scar you too
Describing potential harm if caught, including shooting or cutting
No tellin' what that gal might do
Highlighting the unpredictable actions of the speaker's gal
Oh make me down a pallet on your floor
Repetition of the request for a pallet on the floor
Just make me down a pallet on your floor
Continuation of the request for a pallet on the floor
Make me down, a pallet soft and low
Emphasis on a soft and low pallet to be made
Make me a pallet on your floor
Reiteration of the request for a pallet on the floor
Oh make me down
Repetition of the request to make the speaker down on a pallet
Yeah make me down
Repetition of the request to make the speaker down
Make me a pallet down, soft and low
Repetition of the desire for a soft and low pallet
Make me a pallet on your floor
Final repetition of the request for a pallet on the floor
Well make me down, make me down
Repetition of the request to make the speaker down
Right over here in the corner would be fine baby, hm
Suggesting a specific location for making the pallet
Yeah, this roll-out blanket right there in
Referring to a roll-out blanket as a suitable pallet
Yeah, come on over baby
Invitation for someone to come over
