"St Louis Blues" lyrics
Oh, I hate to see that evening sun go down
Oh, I hate to see, see that evening sun go down
Because my baby she's-a left this town
If I'm feeling tomorrow, like I feel today
If I'm feeling tomorrow, like I feel today
Why I'll pack my trunks and make my getaway
St. Louis woman, with her diamond rings
She pulls that man around like her apron strings
If it wasn't for powder and her store-bought hair, yes sir
That gal I love she would have been so far from here
I got the St. Louis blues, I'm blue as I can be
That woman's got a heart like a rock cast in the sea
Or else she wouldn't have been so far from me
I said a red-headed woman make a freight train jump the track
I said a red-headed woman make a freight train jump the track
And a blonde-headed gal make the preacher ball the jack
I said a red-headed woman make a freight train jump the track
I said a red-headed woman make a freight train jump the track
But a blonde-headed gal make the preacher ball the jack
St. Louis woman, with her diamond rings
Why, she pulls that man around like her apron strings
If it wasn't for powder and her that store-bought hair
That gal I love she would have been so far from here
I got the St. Louis blues, I'm blue as I can be
And that woman's got a heart like a rock cast in the sea
Or else my baby she wouldn't have gone so far from me
St. Louis woman, with her diamond rings
She pulls that man around like her apron strings
Now if it wasn't for powder and her store-bought hair
That gal I love she would have been so far from here
I got the St. Louis blues, I'm blue as I can be
And that woman got a heart like a rock cast in the sea
Or else my she wouldn't have gone, she wouldn't have been so far
From me
Hey little mama, she wouldn't have been so far from me
I said a red-headed woman make a freight train jump the track
Yes sir, yes sir
I said a red-headed woman make a freight train jump the track
But a blonde-headed gal make the preacher ball the jack
I said a blonde-headed woman make a good man leave the farm
I said a blonde-headed woman make a good man leave the farm
But a red-headed gal she's the one that does the harm
The one that does the harm
I said a red-headed gal she's the one that does the harm
Oh, I hate to see, see that evening sun go down
Because my baby she's-a left this town
If I'm feeling tomorrow, like I feel today
If I'm feeling tomorrow, like I feel today
Why I'll pack my trunks and make my getaway
St. Louis woman, with her diamond rings
She pulls that man around like her apron strings
If it wasn't for powder and her store-bought hair, yes sir
That gal I love she would have been so far from here
I got the St. Louis blues, I'm blue as I can be
That woman's got a heart like a rock cast in the sea
Or else she wouldn't have been so far from me
I said a red-headed woman make a freight train jump the track
I said a red-headed woman make a freight train jump the track
And a blonde-headed gal make the preacher ball the jack
I said a red-headed woman make a freight train jump the track
I said a red-headed woman make a freight train jump the track
But a blonde-headed gal make the preacher ball the jack
St. Louis woman, with her diamond rings
Why, she pulls that man around like her apron strings
If it wasn't for powder and her that store-bought hair
That gal I love she would have been so far from here
I got the St. Louis blues, I'm blue as I can be
And that woman's got a heart like a rock cast in the sea
Or else my baby she wouldn't have gone so far from me
St. Louis woman, with her diamond rings
She pulls that man around like her apron strings
Now if it wasn't for powder and her store-bought hair
That gal I love she would have been so far from here
I got the St. Louis blues, I'm blue as I can be
And that woman got a heart like a rock cast in the sea
Or else my she wouldn't have gone, she wouldn't have been so far
From me
Hey little mama, she wouldn't have been so far from me
I said a red-headed woman make a freight train jump the track
Yes sir, yes sir
I said a red-headed woman make a freight train jump the track
But a blonde-headed gal make the preacher ball the jack
I said a blonde-headed woman make a good man leave the farm
I said a blonde-headed woman make a good man leave the farm
But a red-headed gal she's the one that does the harm
The one that does the harm
I said a red-headed gal she's the one that does the harm
