St. Louis Blues (1954) Louis Armstrong (Ft. Velma Middleton)

[Verse 1: Velma Middleton]
I hate to see that evening sun go down
I hate to see that evening sun go down
'Cause it makes me feel like I'm on my last go round

[Verse 2: Velma Middleton]
If I'm feelin' tomorrow like I feel today
Yes, feelin' tomorrow like I feel today
I'm gonna pack my trunk and make my getaway

[Verse 3: Velma Middleton]
Say St. Louis woman, wears her diamond ring
She pulls her man around by her apron strings
If it wasn't for the powder and the store-bought hair
Say, that man I love wouldn't have go nowhere, nowhere

[Verse 4: Velma Middleton]
Say, I love my man like a schoolboy love his pie
Like Louis Armstrong blows so nice and high
Gonna love that man until the day I die

[Verse 5: Louis Armstrong]
Yes, I been to the gypsy to get my fortunе told
Yes, been down to the gypsy to get my fortunе told
Because the gypsy goes crazy ‘bout my jelly roll, yeah yeah
