St. Louis Blues Lyrics


I hate to see that ev'nin' sun go down
I hate to see that ev'nin' sun go down
'Cause the woman I love man, she done blown this townIf I'm feelin' tomorrow, like I'm feelin' today
If I'm feelin' tomorrow, like I'm feelin' today
I'm gonna pack my bags an' make my get-a-waySt. Louie woman, with her diamond ring
Leads the man around by her apron strings
If it wasn't for powder and that store bought hair
That woman of mine wouldn't have gone nowhere
NowhereI've got the St. Louie blues, I'm blue as I can be
That woman of mine got a heart like a rock in the sea
If she'd a been all right she wouldn't have gone so far from me

Mathis James "Jimmy" Reed (September 6, 1925 – August 29, 1976) was an American blues singer, guitarist, harmonica player and songwriter, notable for bringing his distinctive style of blues to mainstream audiences. Reed was a major player in the field of electric blues. His lazy, slack-jawed singing, piercing harmonica and hypnotic guitar patterns were one of the blues' most easily identifiable sounds in the 1950s and 1960s, and had a significant impact on many rock and roll artists who followed, such as Elvis Presley, Billy Gibbons (ZZ Top) and the Rolling Stones.
