lyrics

I hate to see that evening sun go down
Yes I hate to see that evening sun go down
Because the man I love has gone and left this town

Feeling tomorrow like I've been feeling today
Yes, I'll be feeling tomorrow like I've been feeling today
I guess I'll pack up my trunk and make my get-away

St. Louis woman, with that diamond ring
She pulls that man around with her apron strings
And if it wasn't for powder or that store bought hair
The man I love, he wouldn't go nowhere, nowhere!

I got the St. Louis blues
I'm as blue as I can be
That man has a heart
Like a rock cast in the sea
Or else he wouldn't have gone so far away from me

Now I love that man, Like a school boy loves his pie
Like a Kentucky colonel likes mint in his rye
I'm gonna love that man
Until the day I die
