It was down to the old Joe barrom On the corner by the square They were serving the drikns as usual And the usual crowd was there I was down to St. James infirmary To see my baby there She was lying on a long white table So sweet, cool and so fair Went up to see the doctor "She's very low," he said Went back to see my baby Good God! She's lying there dead Let her go, let her go, God bless her Wherever she may be She may search the wide world over And never find a better man than me Oh, when I die, please bury me In my twenty dollar Stetson hat Put a twenty-dollar gold piece on my watch chain So the gang will know I died standin' path Get six gamblers to carry my coffin Six chorus girls to sing me a song Put a twenty-piece jazz band on my tail gate To raise hell as we go along Let her go, let her go, God bless her Wherever she may be She may search the wide world over And never find a better man than me Now that's the end of my story Let's have another round of booze And if anyone should ask you just tell them I've got the St. James Infirmary blues
