Ch: Make me down a pallet on your floor

Make me down a pallet on your floor

Make it soft, make it low, so my good gal will never know

you Made me down a pallet on your floor

Big leg Ida don't you cry this time

My lovin' Ida don't you cry this time

if you Cry for a nickel you might die for a dime

so you can Cry all you want to baby, but your money don't mind.

Ch.

I woke up this morning, there's women on my mind 2x

well, Yesterday was whiskey, tomorrow might be wine

'cause Important things is always on my mind.

Ch.

I got the blues so bad I can hardly see 3x

Ain't no-one ever had these old blues like me

Ch.

#Guitar arrangements of Jack McGann.
#
#Many of you may not recognize Jack McGann's name as a guitarist since he never
#recorded commmercially.  You may however recognize the arrangement.  Jack was
#highly regarded among his peers for his arrangements of traditional blues,
#ragtime, and swing music.  He was also one of the most respected and admired
#acoustic guitar teachers of the '70s and '80s.  His arrangements have been
#passed on by his students, grand-students, peers, peers' students, etc.
#
#Jack was also a social activist, and became nationally known for his fight
#for equal health care coverage for persons with AIDS.
#

#
#A few years ago I heard one of Eric Schoenberg's students play the
#accompaniment from this piece, but he didn't know Jack's break. So here
#are both.  Notice the stepwise bass line (one of Jack's trademarks).
#
#As I recall, Pat Sky sang a very similar version and may have recorded it.

Ch: Make me down a pallet on your floor
    Make me down a pallet on your floor
    Make it soft, make it low, so my good gal will never know
    you Made me down a pallet on your floor
Big leg Ida don't you cry this time
My lovin' Ida don't you cry this time
if you Cry for a nickel you might die for a dime
so you can Cry all you want to baby, but your money don't mind.
Ch.
I woke up this morning, there's women on my mind  2x
well, Yesterday was whiskey, tomorrow might be wine
'cause Important things is always on my mind.
Ch.
I got the blues so bad I can hardly see  3x
Ain't no-one ever had these old blues like me
Ch.
