St. Louis Blues Songtext
von Les Brown

I hate to see that evening sun go down
I hate to see that evening sun goes down
′Cause my baby, he just left this town

Feelin' tomorrow like I feels today
If I feels tomorrow like I feels today
I′ll pack my truck and make my get-a-way


St. Louis woman with her diamond ring
Pulls that man around by her even screen
If it wasn't for her and that stubborn hair
That man I love would not go nowhere, nowhere

I got to the St. Louis blues, just as blues as I can be
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 love my man like a school boy loves that pie
Like a Kentucky colonel loves that rocket ride
I love my man until the day he dies
I′ve got no time to lose, St. Louis blues
