Lyrics Jan – 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 flashy foreign cars
That were parked out in front of

You came a long way from St. Louis
You broke a lot of hearts between
I’ve met a gang of gloomy guys
Who were doin’ all right
Till you came on the scene

You blew in from the middle-west
And certainly impressed
The population here-abouts
Well baby, I got news for you
I’m from Missouri too
So, naturally, I got my doubts

You got ’em droppin’ by the way-side
A feelin’ I ain’t gonna know
You came a long way from St. Louis
But baby, you still got a long way to go

My, how you come up
Hmmm, you really come on

Hey, I’ll have your address
St. Louis woman
You’re a St. Louis doll

You blew in from the middle-west
And certainly impressed
The population here-abouts
Well baby, I’ve got news for you
I’m from Missouri too

You got ’em droppin’ by the way-side
A feelin’ I ain’t gonna know
You came a long way from St. Louis
But baby, you still got a long way to go

You left St. Louis far behind
Keep this little thought in mind
You still… got a long way to go
