ST. JAMES INFIRMARY BLUES
WITH JOOLS HOLLAND
TRADITIONAL
I went down to the St James Infirmary Saw my baby there
She stretched out on a long white table So sweet,
so cold, so fair Let her go,
let her go, God bless her Wherever she may be She can
look this wide world over But she'll never find a sweet
man like me When I die want you to dress me in straight
lace shoes I wanna a boxback coat and a Stetson hat
Put a twenty dollar gold piece on my watch chain So
the boys'll know that I died standing flat
