St. Louis Blues(Take 2) - Billie Holiday & Her Orchestra

作词：W.C. Handy

作曲：W.C. Handy

I hate to see

that evening sun go down

I hate to see

that evening sun go down

Cause my baby

he's gone left this town

Fellin' tomorrow like I feel today

If I'm feelin' tomorrow

like I feel today

I'll pack my truck

and make my give-a-way

St louis woman

with her diamond ring

Pulls that man around

by her apron strings

If it wasn't for powder

and has store bought hair

That man I love

would have gone nowhere

nowhere

I got the st louis blues

Blues as I can be

That mans got a heart

like a rock cast in the sea

Or else he wouldn't have gone

so far from me

I love my baby

like a school boy loves his pie

Like a kentucky colonel

loves his mintn rye

I love my baby

till the day I die
