St James' Infirmary
Papa Pider's Jazz Band
Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
I went down to St. Old Joes Bar room At the corner by the square The drinks were being served as usual And a goodly crowd was there On my left Big Joe Mc Kennedy His eyes so bloodshot red As he gazed at the crowd around him These were the very words he said I went down to St. James´ Infirmary I sought my baby there She was streched out on a big white table So sweet so cold so fair Now let her go, let her go God bless her Where ever she may be She has looked her wide world over and never found another man as me When I die please bury me in my hightop Stetson hat Put a twenty dollar goldpiece on my watch chain The gang will know I died standing straight Oh now that you´ve heard my story Let´s have another shot of booze And if anyone should ask you I ´ve got those St. James´s Infirmary blues
