You Came a Long Way from St. Louis

You came a long way from St. Louis

You climbed the ladder of success

I've seen the town and country 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 gals

Who were doin' all right 'til you came on the scene

You blew in from the middle west

And certainly impressed

The population hereabouts

Well, baby, I've got news for you

I'm from Missouri, too

So naturally I've got my doubts

You got 'em droppin' by the wayside

A feelin' I ain't gonna know

You came a long way from St. Louis

But baby, you've still got a long way to go

You blew in from the middle west

And certainly impressed

The population hereabouts

Well, baby, I've got news for you

I'm from Missouri, too

So naturally I've got my doubts

You got 'em droppin' by the wayside

A feelin' I ain't gonna know

You came a long way from St. Louis

But baby, you've still got a long way to go

You came a long way from St. Louis

But baby, you've still got a long way to go

You came a long way from St. Louis

But baby, you've still got a long way to go
