about

"The Saint Louis Blues" (or "St. Louis Blues") is a popular American song composed by W. C. Handy in the blues style and published in September 1914. It was one of the first blues songs to succeed as a pop song and remains a fundamental part of jazz musicians' repertoire. Louis Armstrong, Bing Crosby, Bessie Smith, Count Basie, Glenn Miller, Guy Lombardo, and the Boston Pops Orchestra are among the artists who have recorded it. The song has been called "the jazzman's Hamlet." Composer William Grant Still arranged a version of the song in 1916 while working with Handy.

The 1925 version sung by Bessie Smith, with Louis Armstrong on cornet, was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1993. The 1929 version by Louis Armstrong & His Orchestra (with Red Allen) was inducted in 2008.

lyrics

I hate to see the evening sun go down,
said I hate to see the evening sun go down,
'cause a man I love gone left this town.

If I'm feelin' tomorrow just like I feel today,
said that if I'm feelin' tomorrow just like I feel today
I'm gona pack my bags and make my get away.

St. Louis woman with all her diamond rings,
I should pull that man around by her apron strings,
twern‘t for powder and her store-bought hair,
the man I love wouldn’t go nowhere, nowhere.

I got the St. Louis blues, I‘m just as blues as I can be,
my man‘s got a heart like a rock cast in a sea,
or else he wouldn't gone so far from me.

I love my man like a school boy loves his pie,
said I love my man like a school boy loves his pie,
I love that sweet man untill a day I die.
