Tom T. Hall - St. Louis Named A Shoe After Me lyrics

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 it's
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

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 named a shoe after me
Well, you know they didn't name
It after Jerry Lee
St louis named a shoe after me
