St. James Infirmary

Well it was down in Big Kid's barroom a corner beyond the square
Everybody drinking liquor the regular crowd was there

I walked on out to the corner begin looking around
Looking for my baby but my baby couldn't found

I walked passed St James Infirmary and I heard my baby moan
Stretched out on a long white table laying there so white so prone
Mhm stretched out on a long white table laying there so white so prone
[ ac.guitar ]
Went on out to see the doctor your gal is low he said
I went back in to see my baby good Lord she was layin there dead

Sixteen coal black horses all hitched up in a line
And in that pretty buggy she's a ridin' goodbye old gal of mine

Went on back to the barroom to get me a drink of booze
And that's where you'll find me cryin' and singin' the drunker's blues
Mhm that's where you'll find me cryin' and singin' the drunker's blues
