St. Louis Blues

St. Louis Blues - Buster Brown/Little Ann

Well I hate to see

That evening sun go down

Oh but I hate to see

That lovely sun go down

Well it makes me to know

Morrow's my last go around

Well if I feeling tomorrow

Just like I feel today

If I'm feeling tomorrow

Just like I feel today

I'm gonna pack my trunk

And make my get away

A St Louie woman

With all the diamond rings

She drags the man around

By her apron string

If it wasn't for powder

An that store bought hair

An that gal a-mine

She wouldn't be going nowhere

No where

I got the St Louie blues

Blue as a man can be

Yeah that gal's got a heart

Like a rock cast into the sea

Well if she didn't have

She wouldn't have gone so far from me

Look out now

Yeah

Wooh

Ha

The Mississippi River

Long deep and wide

I got a good God

She's on the other side

Take my mind baby

Take my mind to St Louie

Well I wanna go back

And that's where I belong to be

Yeah the river so wide

I can't step in

Crazy about her

I just can't help it

Take my mind baby

Take my mind to St Louie

Well I wanna go back

And that's where I belong to be

Oh take my mind pretty mama

Take my mind pretty mama

Wooh

Take me back pretty baby

Take me back to St Louie

Yeah take me back mama

That's where I belong to be
