St. Louis Blues [Take 1] by Benny Goodman

I hate to see that evening sun go down
I hate to see that evening sun go down
'Cause the woman I'm loving, she has left this town

If I'm feeling tomorrow just like I feel today
If I'm feeling tomorrow just like I feel today
I'm gonna pack my bags and make a getaway

St. Louis woman without your diamond ring
If you didn't have good looks
You wouldn't mean a thing

If it was not for powder and your super hair
Without the man who loves you
You wouldn't get nowhere, nowhere

I got the St. Louis blues, blue as I can be
I got the St. Louis blues, blue as I can be
You know I love you but you don't care for me

I got the St. Louis blues, blue as I can be
I got the St. Louis blues, blue as I can be
You know I love you but you don't care for me
I got the St. Louis blues, blue as I can be
