St. Louis Blues Soundtrack: Band Intro / Crap Game / St. Louis Blues Songtext
von Bessie Smith

I hates to see day evnin sun go down
I hates to see dat evnin sun go down
′Cause ma baby, she done lef dis town
If i feel tomorrow lak ah feel today
Feel tomorrow lak ah feel today
I'll pack up my trunk, and make ma git away


Saint Louis woman wid her diamon rings
Pulls dat man ′round by her apron strings
Twernt for powder an her store-bought hair
De man she love wouldn't gone nowhere, nowhere

Got dem Saint Louis Blues, as blue as ah can be
Dat man got a heart lak a rock cast into de sea
Or else he wouldn't have gone so far, far from me
