St. Louis Blues - Cleo Laine

作词：William Christopher Handy

作曲：William Christopher Handy

I hate to see that evening sun go down

Hate to see that evening sun go down

'Cause my baby he's gone left this town

Feelin' tomorrow like I feel today

Feelin' tomorrow like I feel today

I'll pack my truck and make my get away

St Louis woman with her diamond ring

Pulls that man around by her

If not strange between for

Powder and for stone go ahead

That man I love he would gone nowhere nowhere

I got the St Louis blues just as

Blue as I can be

That man's got a heart

Just like a rock cast in the sea

Or else he wouldn't have gone so far from me

I love my man like a school boy loves his pie

Like a Kentucky colonel loves his mint'n rye

So I love my baby till the day I die

Till the day I die
