Lyrics

[Verse 1] I hate to see that evening sun go down I hate to see that evening sun go down 'Cause my baby, he's done left this town Feeling tomorrow like I feel today If I'm feeling tomorrow like I feel today I'll pack my trunk, make my get-a-way [Bridge] St. Louis woman with her diamond rings Pulls that man around by her apron strings If it wasn't for powder and her store bought hair That man I love wouldn't have gone nowhere, nowhere [Verse 2] I've got the St. Louis Blues, blue as I can be That man's got a heart like a rock cast in the sea Or else he wouldn't have gone so far from me [Instrumental Break] [Verse 3] I love my man like a school boy loves his pie Like a Kentucky colonel loves his mint an' rye I'll love my baby 'til the day I die
