Careless Love

Careless Love - Nat King Cole

Saint Louis woman with her diamon' rings

Pulls dat man 'roun' by her apron strings

'Twern't for powder an' for store-bought hair

The gal I love would not gone nowhere

Got dem Saint Louis blues just as blue as I can be

That gal got a heart like a rock cast in the sea

I oh she would not have gone so far from me

I love that gal like a schoolboy loves his pie

Like a Kentucky Col'nel loves his mint an' rye

I'll love my baby until the day I die

I'll love my baby till the day I die
