Lyrics
Oh countryman friend, lend me your ears
I'll tell you a tale of fifteen years
I'm a lone man but not forlorn
I wanna see the city where I was born
I've got a feeling I can't understand
I wanna get back to my homeland
I ain't got no money, I ain't got a cent
I've gotta get on that train, so help me
Show me the way to St. Louis, show me the way
Show me the way to St. Louis, show me the way
Come on, baby, got to get moving
Come on, baby, got to get grooving
Show me the way to St. Louis, show me the way
Oh you've gotta show me the way
Oh you've gotta help me
Oh yeah, you've gotta help me
Oh yeah, come on and show me, oh yeah
Step up to me, you city gents
Clean your shoes for fifteen cents
Fix your tie, you'll look a smash
If you don't mind, I'll take your cash
Soon I'll get the money, I've got to feel fine
I'll pack my bags and you can drink my wine
Only gotta know, I've got to go home
The good Lord tells me so, so help me
Show me the way to St. Louis, show me the way
Show me the way to St. Louis, show me the way
Come on, baby, got to get moving
Come on, baby, got to get grooving
Show me the way to St. Louis, show me the way
Oh yeah, come on and show me
I've gotta get home, yeah to the city
You've gotta help me, oh
On my way, show me the way
Which train goes to Louis?
You know I've got the fare
Cos I know my time's coming fast
I've gotta try and make it there
Come on, baby, oh come on
You've gotta show me
Oh yeah, I wanna hear
Come on, baby, got to get moving
Come on, baby, got to get grooving
Show me the way to St. Louis, show me the way
Show me the way to St. Louis, show me the way
Show me the way to St. Louis, show me the way
Come on, baby, got to get moving
Come on, baby, got to get grooving
Show me the way to St. Louis, show me the way
Oh yeah, I wanna get there, come on
Oh yeah, you know I wanna get there, yeah
Oh yeah, I wanna get back to the city, oh
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh
Come on, show me, yeah I said show me
You've gotta get that fare, oh yeah
I've gotta get there, come on, oh yeah
I wanna get the fare to my homeland
I wanna get there, the fare to my homeland, oh yeah
