(CHORUS)
MAKE SOMETHING HAPPEN
GOTTA MAKE SOMETHING HAPPEN
MAKE SOMETHING HAPPEN RIGHT NOW
ALAN:
UP IN NEW YORK CITY
DOWN IN NEW ORLEANS
THEY CALL IT A DEPRESSION
I KNOW JUST WHAT THEY MEAN
BUT RIGHT HERE IN ST. LOUIS
IT REALLY AIN'T NO NEWS
WHAT THEY CALL DEPRESSION
WE JUST CALL THE BLUES
LIFE FOR SOME WILL ALWAYS BE A STRUGGLE
STARTING FROM THE DAY THAT THEY ARE BORN
BUT I WILL ALWAYS FIND A GIRL TO SNUGGLE
AS LONG AS I CAN JAZZ THEM WITH MY HORN
(CHORUS)
CALLIE:
I CAME TO ST. LOUIS
FROM MEMPHIS TENNESSEE
DEPRESSION IN ST. LOUIS
DON'T SEEM SO BAD TO ME
ALCOHOL IS FLOWING
THERE IS MUSIC EVERYWHERE
NOBODY'S GOT MONEY
BUT NO ONE SEEMS TO CARE
I'M NOT GOING TO WORRY ABOUT TOMORROW
HEAVEN ONLY KNOWS WHAT IT WILL BRING
BUT I WON'T HAVE TO BEG, STEAL, OR BORROW
AS LONG AS I REMEMBER HOW TO SING
(CHORUS)
