St. James Infirmary Lyrics

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

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

When I die, I bury me a straight lace shoes
a box back suit and a stetson hat
put twenty-dollar gold piece on my watch chain
so the boys don't know i died standing pat
