I hate to see that evening sun go down |
|
I hate to see that evening sun go down |
|
'Cause my lovin' baby done left this town |
|
If I feel tomorrow like I feel today |
|
If I feel tomorrow like I feel today |
|
I'm gonna pack my trunk and make my getaway |
|
Oh, that St. Louis woman with her diamond rings |
|
She pulls my man around by her apron strings |
|
And if it wasn't for powder and her store-bought hair |
|
Oh, that man of mine wouldn't go nowhere |
|
I got those St. Louis blues, just as blue as I can be |
|
Oh, my man's got a heart like a rock cast in the sea |
|
Or else he wouldn't have gone so far from me |
|
I love my man like a schoolboy loves his pie |
|
Like a Kentucky colonel loves his rocker and rye |
|
I'll love my man until the day I die, Lord, Lord |
|
I got the St. Louis blues, just as blue as I can be, Lord, Lord |
|
That man's got a heart like a rock cast in the sea |
|
Or else he wouldn't have gone so far from me |
|
I got those St. Louis blues |
|
I got the blues, I got the blues, I got the blues |
|
My man's got a heart like a rock cast in the sea |
|
Or else he wouldn't have gone so far from me, Lord, Lord |
