St. Louis Blues

Oh, I hate to see that evening sun go down Yes, I hate to see that evening sun go down Just because my baby, he has gone and left this town If I'm feeling tomorrow just like I feel today If I'm feeling feeling tomorrow just like a feel today I'm gonna pack my trunk and make my getaway St. Louis woman with all her diamond rings Pulls that man around by her apron strings If it wasn't for powder and for store bought hair The man I love wouldn't have gone nowhere Nowhere Got the St. Louis blues, blue as I can be Got the St. Louis blues, blue as I can be My man got a heart like a rock cast in the deep blue sea He may be your man but he comes up to see me sometime Yes he may be your man but he comes up to see me sometime Live six flights up and that man he sure love to climb Wouldn't give a blind sparrow an acorn Wouldn't give a crippled crab a crutch Wouldn't give a blind sparrow an acorn Wouldn't give a crippled crab a crutch Ain't gonna give you nothing 'Cause you think you're such a much and much Got the St. Louis, got the St. Louis Got the blues, got the blues, got the blues, blue as I can be Mississippi river long deep wide I got to meet my sweet man on the other side Take me back to St. Louis, back to St. Louis Got the St. Louis Blues, just as blue as I can be
