Subject: Lyr Add: MAKE ME A PALLET ON YOUR FLOOR
And the version my brother and I have done for the last 30 years (kind of an amalgamation of many versions-but isn't that what folk music is all about)?
Gonna give everybody my regards Even if I have to ride the rods When I'm in Georgia with no place to go Make me a pallet on your floor.
Worried blues are everywhere I see These worried blues are everywhere I see These blues are all around me; they're everywhere I go Make me a pallet on your floor.
I'd be more than satisfied If I could take that train and ride When I reach Atlanta, with no place to go You can make me a pallet on your floor.
There is also a version titled "Cindy Jane" on an old Bob Gibson album.
