I hate to see that ev'nin' sun go down I hate to see that ev'nin' sun go down 'Cause the woman I love man, she done blown this town If I'm feelin' tomorrow, like I'm feelin' today If I'm feelin' tomorrow, like I'm feelin' today I'm gonna pack my bags an' make my get-a-way St. Louie woman, with her diamond ring Leads the man around by her apron strings If it wasn't for powder and that store bought hair That woman of mine wouldn't have gone nowhere Nowhere I've got the St. Louie blues, I'm blue as I can be That woman of mine got a heart like a rock in the sea If she'd a been all right she wouldn't have gone so far from me
