lyrics

I went down to St James Infirmary
Saw my baby there
She was stretched out on a long white table
So sweet, so cold so fair

The I went down to Old Joe's Barroom
On the corner by the square
Business was going as usual
The usual crowd was there

Let her go, let her go, God bless her
Wherever she may be
She can search this whole wide world over
She won't ever find another sweet man like me

When I die, bury me
In my Stetson hat
Put a 20 dollar watchpiece on my gold chain;
So the boys'll know I died standin' pat

Get 16 gamblers
Coal black to pull that cart
Better make my old dear hurse
A mother=lovin' work of art

Now that you've heard my story
Let's have another round of booze
And if anyone should ask me
I got the Saint James Infirmary Blues
