St. Louis Blues

(W.C.Handy)

Ray Noble and His Orchestra


I hate to see that evening sun go down
How I hate to see that evening sun go down
'Cause my baby she done left this town

St. Louis woman with her diamond rings
Messed that guy round on her apron strings
And if it wasn't for powder and store-bought hair
That gal of mine, she wouldn't go away from here
