Oh, I hate to see that evening sun go down
I hate to see that evening sun go down
Just because my baby, he has gone and left this town
If I’m feeling tomorrow just like I did today
If I’m feeling tomorrow just like I did today
I’m gonna pack my trunk and I’m gonna make my get away
St. Louis woman, with all her diamond rings
Pulled that man around by her apron strings
If it wasn't for her powder or for her store bought hair
That man I love , he wouldn't have gone nowhere, no where
I got the St. Louis Blues, just as blue as I can be (hear me crying I got the blues)
Got the blues, St. Louis Blues, blue as I can be
My man’s got a heart ooo like a rock cast in the sea
Say, if you don’t like whiskey, well then you might as well get used to wine (‘cause wine is fine)
If you don’t like whiskey, well then you might as well get used to wine (‘cause wine is fine)
‘Cause that man he left me with that wine and I felt mellow and fine
I got the St. Louis, I got the blues, St. Louis Blues
I got the blues, got the St. Louis Blues
You hear me talking baby, I been crying about this St. Louis Blues

Scarlet Scribbles on an overdrawn page,
Leave me to wrap myself in shame.
Rip these thoughts outta my head,
Take these dreams, he can have them instead.
Riotous ramblings from an overgrown boy,
Nothing matters now only his new toy.
Scarlet Scribbles on an overdrawn page,
Leave me to wrap myself in shame.
Let me remember how alone it all feels,
Let me forget the same.
Give me filthy credit on a piece of plastic sin,
Roll me in security that's only found within.
Draw a circle around the wasted passion of my soul,
And find me lying down to my boots, never take control.
Let me remember how alone it all feels,
Let me forget the same.
Scarlet Scribbles on an overdrawn page,
Leave me to wrap myself in shame.
Rip these thoughts outta my head,
Take these dreams, he can have them instead.
Riotous ramblings from an overgrown boy,
Nothing matters now only his new toy.
Scarlet Scribbles on an overdrawn page,
Leave me to wrap myself in shame.

Just An Hour

Even Just an Hour with you, It’s all that I need to see me through
Sad to say goodnight so soon, Know it’s alright, we’re in tune
Glad to see your face out there tonight, Glad to know that everything’s alright
Miss the times when we could have the day, To spend together in our own way
Every moment I share with you
Is like flying, without trying
And when life gives me the blues
You’ll come hear me, and be near me
I’ve noticed when you look my way, I run out of things I can say
But you always make my day, When you tell me that you can stay
Then sometimes you feel so far, Then closer when I play my guitar
I promise that I’ll always come home, I’ll miss you more than I've ever known
Every moment I share with you
Is like flying, without trying
And when life gives me the blues
You’ll come hear me, and be near me
Oh, I wonder if we’re meant to last
Can our love be so vast, stretching from the past
I reach out and touch you’re lips
With my fingertips, and now I know, I know
Even Just an Hour with you, It’s all that I need to see me through
Sad to say goodnight so soon, Know it’s alright, we’re in tune
Glad to see your face out there tonight, Glad to know that everything’s alright
Miss the times when we could have the day, To spend together in our own way
Every moment I share with you
Is like flying, without trying
And when life gives me the blues
You’ll come hear me, and be near me
