So many times I've tried to work it out with you oh
But this time I was certain we were through
So I packed my things and I got on a bus
Oh told myself it was over for us
But by the time I pulled into old st lou
All I could do was think of you yeah
By the time I pulled into old st lou
All I could do was think of you
I got the coast to coast blues
Yeah got the coast to coast blues
You were always looking out for number one
Oh
In the last few years we weren't having that much fun
Things that I said didn't come out right
Left like a fool in the dark of the night
By the time I pulled into old st lou
All I could do was think of you yeah
By the time I pulled into old saint lou
All I could do was think of you
I got the coast to coast blues
Hmm I got the coast to coast blues
Oh I said some things that I shouldn't have said
Now I'm hurting baby from my feet to my head
I got the coast to coast blues
Oh yeah I got the coast to coast blues
I pack my things I'm sitting on this bus
Feeling the pain down in my gut
I travel route eighty instead of sixty six
All but lord knows I wasn't having too much kicks and
By the time I pulled it to old saint lou
And all I could do was think of you yeah
By the time I pulled into old st lou
All I could do was think of you yeah
By the time I reached old l a
I just turn around baby and go back the same way
I've been north south from new york back to la
Oh just turn around and go back the same way
I got the coast to coast blues
Yeah I've got the coast coast blues
I've got the coast coast blues
Yeah I've got the coast coast blues
