You know what I've been doin' honey since you said goodbye
I've been gettin' close to walkin' my one millionth mile
I walked the floor so much just thinkin' where could you be
St Louis named a shoe after me
St Louis is famous for its shoes don't you know
Loafers and sneakers and they're makin' them all with soul
Honey I walked so doggone much since you set me free
St Louis named a shoe after me

When I was walkin' all night long and steppin' on my tears
It never dawned on me that someone out there really cared
I walked the floor so well I'm gonna do it on TV St Louis named a shoe after me
St Louis is famous
[ trumpet ]
Well don't think that I'm braggin' I don't care about that shoe
Come on home before they name a river for me too
They're just feeling sorry for me that's plain to see St Louis named a shoe after me
St Louis is famous
St Louis named a shoe after me
Well you know they didn't name it after Jerry Lee St Louis named a shoe after me
