[Verse 1]
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 doing all right
Until you came on the scene!
[Pre-Chorus]
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!
[Chorus]
You got them dropping by the way-side
A feeling I am not going to know
You came a long way from St. Louis
But baby, you still got a long way to go!
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 doing all right
Until you came on the scene!
[Pre-Chorus]
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!
[Chorus]
You got them dropping by the way-side
A feeling I am not going to know
You came a long way from St. Louis
But baby, you still got a long way to go!
