Текст песни St. Louis Blues - Live (7/29/64-Juan-les-Pins) - Ella Fitzgerald

Thank you ladies and gentelmen

Oh I hate to see
That evening sun go down
Way, way, way down
I hate to see
Yes, I hate to see
That evening sun go down
'Cause my baby
He has gone and left this town

If I'm feeling tomorrow
Just like a feel today
Oh, woah, tomorrow
Yes, if I'm feeling
Mmmm, if I'm feeling tomorrow
Yes, like a feel today
I'm gonna pack my trunk
And I'm gonna make my getaway

Yeah, in the morning
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
St. Louis woman
With all the diamond rings
She pulls that man around
By her apron strings
And she's got a lot of diamond
Oh, yes, she's got a lot of diamond rings
And if it wasn't for powder
And for store bought hair
That man I love
Wouldn't have gone nowhere, nowhere

I got the St. Louis blues
Just the blue as I can be
Yeah, yeah, hear me talking
I got the St. Louis blues
Blues, got the blues
Yes, as I can be

My man got a heart
Like a rock cast in a deep blue sea
I say he may be your man
But he comes up
He walks up the stairs to see me sometime
Yes, and I love him
He may be your man
But he comes up to see me sometime
And I live six flights up
Ooh, that man he sure love to climb

I say, if you don't like my peaches
Why do you shake my tricks
Get out of my heart
I say, if you don't like my peaches
Why, why do you shake my tricks
Just stay out, stay out
Stay out of my heart
And let my beat strick, beat

Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
I haven't finished
No, I haven't finished with the blues
I got to go and play it do
Yes, the St Louis blues
I got the blues
Blue as I can be
You hear me shout and crying
A lot blue as I can be, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

I stay in Mississippi River
Oh, it is long, deep and wide
I got to go and find my man
I got to find him on the other side
Take me back to St Louis
Take me back to St Louis
You had Ella
Singing St Louis blues
It was a request
And now I'm blue as I
Blue as I can be
