Lyrics
I hate to see that evening sun go down
I hate to see that evening sun go down
Well, well, because my baby, he done left this town
If I'm feeling tomorrow like I feel today
Oh, if I'm feeling tomorrow like I feel today
I, I'm gonna pack my bag and make my get-away
Oh, the St. Louis woman, she wears a diamond ring
She pulls a man around by her apron string
If it wasn't for powder, all that store-bought hair
That man of mine, he wouldn't have gone nowhere, nowhere
I got the St. Louis blues, just as blue as I can be
I-I-I-I got a man with a heart like a rock cast in the sea
Oh, oh, St. Louis, baby, look what you done to me
If it wasn't for powder, all that store-bought hair
That man of mine, he wouldn't have gone nowhere, nowhere
Well, we're going back to St. Louis (Back to St. Louis)
Going back to St. Louis (Back to St. Louis)
Going back to St. Louis (Back to St. Louis)
Going back to St. Louis (Back to St. Louis)
Going back to St. Louis where I belong
Oh, yeah, yeah, I'm going back, back to St. Louis
Going back to St. Louis (Back to St. Louis)
Oh, I'm going back to St. Louis (Back to St. Louis)
Going back to St. Louis (Back to St. Louis)
