I hate to see the evening sun go down I hate to see the evening sun go down It makes me think I'm on my last go'round Feelin' tomorrow like I feel today Feelin' tomorrow like I feel today I'll pack my trip up and make my getaway St.Louis woman wears her diamond ring Pulls a man around by her apron string Wasn't for powder and this store-bought hair The man I love woundn't go nowhere,nowhere I got them St.Louis blues,just as blue I can be He's got a heart like a rock cast in the sea Or else he would not go so far from me.
