about

Make me down a pallet on your floor

C’est une autre chanson de Hobo, de voyageur fatigué qui cette fois-ci cherche un refuge avant de reprendre sa route. Dans cette version de Sam Chatmon, talentueux bluesman édenté, la morale est claire, directe, intransigeante : ne fermons jamais notre porte à un étranger, il pourrait devenir notre meilleur ami !

lyrics

Make me down a pallet on your floor,
Make me down a pallet on your floor,
Just make me down a pallet on your floor,
Make it so your man will never know.

Don’t ever drive a stranger from your door,
Don’t ever drive a stranger from your door,
Don’t ever drive a stranger from your door,
He may be your best friend you don’t know.

Just take one pillow off your feather bed,
Just take one pillow off your feather bed,
Just take one pillow off your feather bed,
And put it on your loving daddy’s head.

He’s a country man and he just done moved to town,
He’s a country man and he just done moved to town,
He’s a country man he just done moved to town,
He done sold his cotton now he is walking round.

Just make him down a pallet on your floor,
Just make him down a pallet on your floor,
Just make him down a pallet on your floor,
And send him back to the fields so he can raise some more.
