ST. LOUIS BLUES (MX 109) 7/29/44 Songtext
von Bunk Johnson

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

Feelin' 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, if it wasn′t for her and her
That man I love would have gone nowhere, nowhere

I got the St. Louis blues, blues 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

I love my baby like a school boy loves his pie
Like a Kentucky colonel loves his mint ′n rye
I love my man till the day I die
