(Tom T. Hall)

You know what I've been doin' honey, since you said goodbye
I've been gettin' close to walkin' my one millionth miles
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 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.

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 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.

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...
