St Louis Blues

by Andy Pratt

/

lyrics

Well I hate to see the evening sun go down
Cuz it makes me think I'm on my last go round

if I feel tomorrow like I feel today
I'm gonna pack my bags and make my getaway

St Louis woman with her diamond rings
she can tie a man 'round her apron strings
if it weren't for the powder and the store-bought hair
that man I love wouldna gone nowhere

well I love that man like a schoolboy loves his pie
like Louis Armstrong blows so sweet and high
Im gonna love that man till the day I die

I went to the gypsy to get my fortune told
the gypsy knows I'm crazy bout my jelly
she had fortunes all over the place
but when she looked at my palm she slapped me right in the face

I ain't good looking baby I ain't built so fine
but all the boys like me cuz I take my time

gonna grab me a picket off somebody's fence
I'm gonna whip you all over your big head till you get some sense

W C Handy
