You Came A Long Way From St. Louis Lyrics - At The Village Gate - Chris Connor

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 lotta hearts between, 

I've seen a gang of gloomy gals who were doing alright till you came on the scene. 

You came here from the middle west, and certainly impressed the population hereabouts. 

Well, baby, I got news for you, I'm from Missouri too. 

So natcherly I got my doubts, you 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.
