Tom T. Hall - St.Louis Named A Shoe After Me [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1:]
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

[Chorus:]
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

[Verse 2:]
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

[Chorus]

[Verse 3:]
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

[Chorus]

[Outro:]
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
