Carry Me Away - The Doobie Brothers

There was a place in East St Louis

It was in Nineteen fifty nine

When they played they filled

The streets with music that lonely blue note music

That takes your cares away far away

They packed the place when the band was playin'

To get some joy from a smoke filled room

Through that door

You could see the bodies swayin'

The blue note band

Was playin' some lonely blue note song all night long

Oh it carried me away oh carried me away

Oh it carried me away oh carried me away

No place I'd rather stay

If you should ever make it to St Louis

On some hot And lonely night

If you listen you can hear

That blue note music

They fill the streets with music

It carries you away far away

Oh it carried me away oh carried me away

Oh it carried me away oh carried me away

No place I'd rather stay
