Take me down

to the infirmary

lay me down

on cotton sheets

Put a damp cloth

on my forehead

lay me down

and let me sleep

I know the whiskey won't soothe my soul

and the morphine won't heal my heart

but if you take me down to the infirmary

I won't have to sleep or drink alone.

So, take me down

to the infirmary

walk a sound that is as blue as her eyes

Oh, sister Magdelene won't you fetch the

doctor's flask.

He is going to need a steady

a steady hand

I know the whiskey it won't soothe my soul

and the morphine won't heal my heart

but if you take me down to the infirmary

I won't have to sleep or drink alone.

So, take me down

to the infirmary

lay me down on cotton sheets

put a damp cloth on my forehead

lay me down let me sleep

lay me down let me sleep
