St. Louis Blues

St. Louis Blues - Danny Kaye

I hate to see

That evening sun go down

I hate to see

That evening sun go down

How's my baby

She done left this town

Feelin' tomorrow just like I feel today

Feelin' tomorrow just like I feel today

I'll pack my trunk

Make my getaway

St Louis woman

With her diamond rings

Pulls that man around

By her apron strings

If it want for powder

And her store bought hair

The guy I love

Would not gone away

Got the St Louis blues

Just as blue as I can be

They had gotta got a heart

Like a rock cast in the sea

Or else she wouldn't have gone

So far from me

I love that guy

Like a schoolboy loves his pie

Like a Kentucky Colonel

Loves his mint and rye

I'll love my baby

'Til the day I die

'Til the day I die
