<b>St. James Infirmary</b> by <i>Johnny Kendall & The Heralds</i><br />Well I went to the Saint James Infirmary

And I saw my baby there

She was laying on a long, white table

So cold, so sweet, so fair

Let her go, let her go, God bless her

Wherever she may be

She can search this wide world over

But she'll never find such a little man like me

When I die, bury me in straight-leg shoes

And box-back suit, double cross ...

Put a twenty-dollar gold piece on my gravestone

So the boys know I die standing pat

Let her go, let her go, God bless her

Wherever she may be

She can search this wide world over

But she'll never find such a little man like me

When I die, bury me in fine laced shoes

A box-back coat, Stetson hat

Put a twenty-dollar gold piece on my gravestone

So the boys will know I'm standing pat

Let her go, let her go, God bless her

Wherever she may be

She can search this wide world over

But she'll never find such a little man like me

But she'll never find such a little man like me
