St, James Infirmary

St, James Infirmary - Bobby "Blue" Bland

I went down to St James infirmary

And I heard my baby groan

And I felt so broken and hearted

She used to be mine

Though I tried so hard to keep from crying

My heart felt just like lead

She was all that I had to live for

I just wished it was me instead

Now she is gone

She is gone

Let the God bless her

Wherever

She may be

She has searched this wide world all over

But she will never find a man

Like me

She is gone

She is gone

She is gone
