Lyrics:

Love oh love oh Careless Love
Love oh love oh Careless Love
Love oh love oh Careless Love
See what love has done to you

Once you wore your apron low
Once you wore your apron low
Once you wore your apron low
You could not keep that man
Away from your door

Now your apron strings won't tie
Now your apron strings won't tie
Now your apron strings won't tie
He walks down the street
And passes your door right on by


You hate to see that evenin sun go down
You hate to see that evenin sun go down
Well it's around the time
Your man done left this town

If you're feelin' tomorrow
like you feel today
If you're feelin' tomorrow
like you feel today
You'll pack up all your clothes,
And make your get away

St. Louis woman,
with her diamond rings
Drags your man around this town
by her apron strings

Now if it wasn't for that powder
and that store bought hair
Your man
wouldn't have gone nowhere

She's got the St Louis Blues
Blue as she can be
That man got a heart
Like a brick in the wall
Or else he wouldn't have gone
so far from her at all

If she's feelin' tomorrow
like she feels today
If she's feelin' tomorrow
like she feels today
She'll pack up all her clothes,
And make her get away

Take her back to St Louis
That's where she belongs
Take her back to St Louis,
That's where she belong
And if you don't believe she's leavin
Count the days she's gone...
