You Came A Long Way From St. Louis - Jan & Dean
Written by:Bob Russell/John B. Brooks
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
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 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 about
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
You blew in from the middle west
And certainly impressed
The population here about
Well baby I've 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 goooo
