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
