| 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! |
