Lyrics
I went down to St. James Infirmary
And I heard my baby groan
I felt so broken hearted
She used to be my very own
I tried so hard to keep from crying
My heart felt just like lead
She was all I had to live for
I wished that it was me instead
I said I went down to St. James Infirmary
And I saw my baby there
Stretched out on a long, long, long, white table
So sweet, so cold, so bare
But let her go, go, God bless the girl
Wherever she may be
She can search this whole wide world over
She won't never find a sweet man like me
Now when I die, I want you to dress me in straight lace shoes
A box-back coat and a Stetson hat
And put a $20 gold piece on my watch chain
So all the boys will know that I died standing pat
I hear now, yeah, I died standing pat
Now when I die, I want you to dress me in straight lace shoes
A box-back coat and a Stetson hat
And put a $20 gold piece on my watch chain
So all the boys will know that I died standing pat
I hear now, yeah, I died standing pat
St. James Infirmary
I want you to let my baby go
Let my baby go, let my baby go
St. James Infirmary
I want you to let my baby go
