You Came A Long Way From St. Louis
Each of your wives cracks the columns of the clothing
It's very amusing, but your presence eroded
You dine with Mrs. Jones and breakfast with Mrs. Brown
You wined, and you dine as the toast of the town
They all want to fast over you
Don't they you, Casanova you
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 heart between
I've met a gang of gloomy girls
Who were doing alright 'til you came on the scene
You blew in from the Middle West
And certainly impressed the population hereabouts
Well, baby, I got news for you, I'm from Missouri too
So naturally, I've got my doubts
You've got 'em dropping by the wayside
A feeling I ain't gonna know
You came a long way from St. Louis
But baby, you still got a long, long way to go
You've got 'em dropping by the wayside
A feeling I ain't gonna know
You came a long way from St. Louis
But baby, you still got a long way to go
Baby, you've got a long way to go
It's very amusing, but your presence eroded
You dine with Mrs. Jones and breakfast with Mrs. Brown
You wined, and you dine as the toast of the town
They all want to fast over you
Don't they you, Casanova you
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 heart between
I've met a gang of gloomy girls
Who were doing alright 'til you came on the scene
You blew in from the Middle West
And certainly impressed the population hereabouts
Well, baby, I got news for you, I'm from Missouri too
So naturally, I've got my doubts
You've got 'em dropping by the wayside
A feeling I ain't gonna know
You came a long way from St. Louis
But baby, you still got a long, long way to go
You've got 'em dropping by the wayside
A feeling I ain't gonna know
You came a long way from St. Louis
But baby, you still got a long way to go
Baby, you've got a long way to go
