Take me back baby
You don't know my mind
Take me back baby
You don't know my mind
I may look happy
But I'm almost dyin'

I never missed you
Until you said goodbye
I never missed you
Until you said goodbye
And when the train got out of my site
Then I began to cry

From st. Louis to the river
Then into the deep blue sea
From st. Louis to the river
Then into the deep blue sea
If I don't find the one I love
I don't care what becomes of me

All my days seem lonely
And my nights is 'bout the same
My days seem lonely
My nights is 'bout the same
Because I'm used to hearing
My sweet woman call my name
