St. Louis Blues

St. Louis Blues - Louis Prima Lyrics

Oh, that St. Louis woman, with her diamond rings,

She pulls my man around by her apron strings.

And if it wasn't for powder and her store-bought hair,

Oh, that man of mine wouldn't go nowhere.



I got those St. Louis blues, just as blue as I can be,

Oh, my man's got a heart like a rock cast in the sea,

Or else he wouldn't have gone so far from me.



I love my man like a schoolboy loves his pie,

Like a Kentucky colonel loves his rocker and rye

I'll love my man until the day I die, Lord, Lord.



I got the St. Louis blues, just as blue as I can be,

Lord, Lord!

That man's got a heart like a rock cast in the sea,

Or else he wouldn't have gone so far from me.



I got those St. Louis blues, I got the blues, I got the

blues, I got the blues,

My man's got a heart like a rock cast in the sea,

Or else he wouldn't have gone so far from me, Lord, Lord!
