St.James Infirmimary 歌詞
St.James Infirmimary - Josh White (喬什·懷特)
It was down by old joe's barroom
On the corner of the square
They were serving drinks as usual
And the usual crowd was there
On my left stood big joe mckennedy
And his eyes were bloodshot red
And he turned his face to the people
These were the very words he said
I was down to st james infirmary i saw my baby there
She was stretched out on a long white table
So sweet cool and so fair
Let her go let her go god bless her
Wherever she may be
She may search this whole wide world over
Never find a sweeter man as me
When i die please bury me in my high top stetson hat
Put a 20 dollar gold piece on my watch chain
The gang'll know i died standing pat
Let her go let her go god bless her
Wherever she may be
She may search this whole wide world over
Never find a sweeter man as me
I want 6 crapshooters to be my pallbearers
3 pretty women to sing a song
Stick a jazz band on my hearse wagon
Raise hell as i stroll along
Let her go let her go
God bless her
Wherever she may be
She may search this whole wide
World over
She'll never find a sweeter
Man as me
