St. Louis

Oh, country man, friend, let me hear your ears

I'll tell you a tale of fifteen years

I'm a lone man, but not for long

I wanna see the city where I was born

I've got a feeling I can't understand

I wanna get back to my homeland

Ain't got no money, I ain't got a cent

I've gotta get on that train, so help me

Show me the way to St. Louis

Show me the way, show me the way to St. Louis, show me the way

Come on baby, got to get moving, come on baby, got to get grooving

Show me the way to St. Louis, show me the way

Step up to me you city gents, clean your shoes for 15 cents

Fix your tie, you look a smash

If you don't mind, I'll take your cash

Soon I'll get the money I got to feel fine

I packed my bags and you can drink my wine

Only God and the Lord tells me to help me, so

Show me the way to St. Louis, show me the way

Show me the way to St. Louis, show me the way

Come on, baby, got to get moving Come on, baby, got to get groovin'

Show me the way to St. Louis Show me the way

Which train goes to Louis You know I've got the fare

'Cause I know my time's comin' fast I gotta try and make it there

Come on, baby, let's get movin' Come on, baby, let's get groovin'

Show me the way to St. Louis, show me the way

Show me the way to St. Louis, show me the way

Show me the way to St. Louis, show me the way

Come on baby, got to get moving

Come on baby, got to get grooving

Show me the way to St. Louis, show me the way

Show me, show me, show me, show me, show me, show me
