You Came A Long Way From St Louis |
You came a long way from St. Louis |
You climbed the ladder of success. |
. |
I’ve seen the flashy foreign cars |
That were parked out in front of |
Your fancy address! |
You came a long way from St. Louis |
You broke a lot of hearts between. |
. |
I’ve met a gang of gloomy guys |
Who were doin' all right |
'Till you came on the scene! |
You blew in from the middle-west |
And certainly impressed |
The population here-abouts. |
. |
Well baby, I got news for you |
I’m from Missouri too |
So, naturally, I got my doubts! |
You got 'em droppin' by the way-side |
A feelin' I ain’t gonna know. |
. |
You came a long way from St. Louis |
But baby, you still got a long way to go! |
Instrumental break |
My, how you come up! |
Hmmm, you really come on! |
Instrumental break |
Hey, I’ll have your address! |
St. Louis woman |
You’re a St. Louis doll! |
Instrumental break |
You blew in from the middle-west |
And certainly impressed |
The population here-abouts. |
. |
Well baby, I’ve got news for you |
I’m from Missouri too |
So, naturally, I got my doubts! |
You got 'em droppin' by the way-side |
A feelin' I ain’t gonna know. |
. |
You came a long way from St. Louis |
But baby, you still got a long way to go! |
You left St. Louis far behind |
Keep this little thought in mind |
You still. |
.. got a long way to go! |
