St. Louis Blues lyrics

Got St. Louis blues.....blue as I can be;

There's two people in this world I just can't stand;

There's two people in this world I just can't stand;

That's a two-faced woman and a lyin' man;

I'm gonna leave this town walkin', talkin' to myself;

I'm gonna leave this town walkin', talkin' to myself;

Because the sweet woman I love, she belongs to somebody else.

Oh, I say, look here, sweet mama, someday your papa's...

When that big old hound comes around...

And when that big old piece of hound comes..

He's sure gonna leave this town.

I'm goin' back to Chicago to have my hambone boiled;

I'm goin' way back to Chicago to have my hambone boiled;

Because these women in New York City let my good hambone spoil.

I got the St.Louis blues, sweet mama, got St. Louis blues, just blue,

Blue as I can be, St. Louis blues; baby,

Aw, your daddy got St. Louis blues, sweet mama,

All those blues, I'm blue as I can be.
