Atlanta Blues (Make Me One Pallet on Your Floor)

Atlanta Blues - Eartha Kitt/Shorty Rogers

A bed five points talkin'

Daddy and me

Just one square away

From old peach tree peach tree

Possession's nine points of the law

Used to be

Five and nine are fourteen points

And yet they took my man from me

I know that I'd be satisfied

If I could grab a train and ride

If I make and matter

With no place to go

Just make me a pallet on your floor

Well give everybody my regards

I'm comin' in

If I have to ride the rods

I'll grab me an armful of train

Before you know

So make me a pallet on your floor

Oh I'll make me a pallet on your floor

I'll make me a pallet on your floor

Now here's one thing

I want you to know

I'll make me

A little bitty pallet on the floor
