Lyrics

I hate to see, that evenin' sun go down!
I hate to see, that evenin' sun go down!
'Cause my baby, gone and left this town!

Feelin' tomorrow, just like I feel today
If I'm feelin' tomorrow, just like I feel today
I'll pack my trunk, and make my get-away!

I went to the gypsy, to get my fortune told
Yes, I went to the gypsy, to get my fortune told
I asked the gypsy, "what does the future hold?"

Gypsy told me, "don't you wear no black!"
Hmmm! the gypsy told me, "don't you wear no black!" ( no black! )
"Go to st. louis, and you can win her back!"

St. louis woman, with her diamond rings
Pulls this man around by her apron strings

If it wasn't for powder and for store-bought hair
That gal I love wouldn't h've gone nowhere, nowhere!

I got the st. louis blues, just as blue as I can be
'Cause that gal's got a heart, like a rock cast in the sea
Or else she wouldn't have gone so far from me!

I love that gal like a school boy loves his pie
Like a kentucky colonel loves his mint an' his rye
I love that gal, yes I love that gal
Yes, I love that gal . .
Until . . . the day . . . I die!
