waters ethel - make me a pallet on the floor lyrics

waters ethel
miscellaneous
make me a pallet on the floor
[knock, knock, knock]
[spoken:]
who’s there?
it’s me, honey!
get away from that door, get away from there!
cruel daddy, please let me in
say, broad, you got any money?
i ain’t got a cent to my name
get away from there! get away from there!
daddy, i’m so hungry i been out in the front yard eatin’ that short gr-ss
well, broad, that’s too bad, really too bad you been out in the front yard eatin’ that short gr-ss. go in the back yard where it’s longer
um-hmm, that’s all right. remember, i knew you when you couldn’t eat, and you wasn’t sick. so won’t you listen to what i’ve got to say?
well, hurry up, broad, i ain’t got but a few minutes!
i’ve roamed this town
till my feet are sore;
i’m out and down
that’s why i’m at your door
won’t you take me back, please, honey, do
but if you don’t want me no more
here’s all i ask of you:
don’t drive me, honey, from your door
just make me a pallet on the floor;
why, any kind of bed, so i can rest my weary head;
oh, please take me in your arms once more
i’m just a lonesome rollin’ stone
so tired of being all alone
if it’s for only one night, please, i ask you on my knees
to make me a pallet on the floor

- waters ethel
