PALLET ON THE FLOOR. Old-Time, Country Ragtime/Blues. C Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The tune is only distantly musically related to the African-American blues tune of the same title (usually "Make Me a Pallet on the Floor"). Versions were also recorded by the Leake County Ramblers and The Dixie Ramblers (the latter as "Franklin County Blues").

The Stripling Brothers
