Saint Louis Blues — текст песни (Louis Armstrong)

I hates to see dat evnin sun go down

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,

Ill pack up my trunk, and make ma git away.



Saint louis woman wid her diamon rings

Pulls dat man roun by her apron strings.

twernt for powder an her store-bought hair

De man she love wouldnt gone nowhere, nowhere.



Got dem saint louis blues Im as blue as ah can be.

Like a man done throwed that rock down into de sea

Got dem saint louis blues Im as blue as ah can be.



Went to de gypsy get her fortune tole

To de gypsy, done got her fortune tole,

Cause she most wile bout her jelly roll.

Now dat gypsy tole her, "dont you wear no black."

She done tole her, "dont you wear no black.

Go to saint louis, you can win him back."



If she git tocairo, make saint louis by herself,

Git to cairo, find her old friend jeff,

Gwine to pin herself, right there, to his side if she flag his train, she sho can ride.



(spoken) and she sang



Got dem saint louis blues jes as blue as ah can be.

Dat man got a heart lak a rock cast into de sea.

Or else he wouldnt have gone so far from me.

Doggone it!

I loves day man lak a schoolboy loves his pie,

Lak a kentucky colnel ....loves his mint an rye.

Ill love ma baby till the day ah die.



Now a black-headed gal makes a freight train jump the track,

Said a black-headed gal makes a freight train jump the track,

But a long tall gal makes a preacher ball the jack.



Lawd, a blonde-headed woman make a good man leave the town,

I said a blonde-headed woman make a good man leave the town,

But a red-headed woman make a boy slap his pappy down.
