I went down to old Joe's barroom
On the corner by the square
They were serving drinks as usual
And the usual crowd was there
On my left stood steely Jo McKennedy
Her eyes were bloodshot red
She turned to the crowd around her
And these are the words she said
Well, I went down to St. James Infirmary
To see my baby there
He was stretched out on a long, white table
So good, so cold, so fair
Let him go, let him go, God bless him
Wherever he may be
You may search this whole world over
But he'll never find a woman like me
When I die, please bury me
In my scarlet dress and Louboutin heels
Go all in on my coffin
So they'll all know that I died free
I want six gamblers to be my pallbearers
Let a chorus girl sing me a song
I want a jazz band in the cortege
To raise hell as we roll along
So let's go to the parlour
Get out your veiled black hat
There are seven going to that graveyard
But only six of us are coming back
Now you've heard my story
I'll take another shot of the booze
And if anybody should ask you
Tell 'em I got me those gamblin' blues
Tell 'em I got me those gamblin' blues
Tell 'em I got me those gamblin' blues
