St. James Infirmary

St. James Infirmary - Dukes Of Dixieland

I went down to the St James Infirmary

And I saw my baby there

She was stretched out on a long white table

You so cold so clean so bare

Now let her go let her go and God bless her

Wherever she may be

She can look this wide world over

And never find another sweet man like me

When I die I want you to dress me

In straight leg shoes boxback coat and a stetson hat

Yes there put twenty dollar gold piece on my watch chain

So all the cats will know I died standing pat

I went down to the St James Infirmary

And I saw my baby there

She was stretched out on a long white table

You so cold so clean so bare

Now let her go let her go and God bless her

Wherever she may be

She can look this wide world over

And never find another sweet man like me
