Make me a pallet on your floor
Make me baby a pallet on your floor
Make it soft, make it low
I swear he'll never know
When your main one comes
I swear he'll never know

Make it baby
By that kitchen door
Make it baby
By that kitchen door
Make it soft, make it low
I swear that he'll never know

When your good man comes
I swear he'll never know
I get up in the morning
I'll make you a red hot meal
I'll get up in the morning baby
I'll make you a red hot meal

Just to show you
I appreciate it
Whatcha did for me
When you made me
A pallet on your floor
Oh make me a pallet on your floor
Make me baby a pallet on your floor
Make it soft, make it low
I swear he'll never know
When your good man comes

He'll never know
Make it soft, make it low
I swear he'll never know
When your main one comes
I swear he'll never know
