about

Our cover of a classic American Folk/Jazz standard

lyrics

I went down to St. James Infirmary
Saw my baby there
She was stretched out on a long white table
So sweet, so cold, so fair

I went up to see the doctor
"She's low, she's low" he said
I went back down to see my baby
Good lord, she was lying there dead

Let her go let her go, God bless her
Where ever she may be
She can search this whole wide world over
She ain't never find another man like me

When I die, burry me in straight laced shoes
Box-back jacket and a Stetson hat
Put a twenty dollar gold piece on my box lid
And all the boys will know I died standing pat

Let her go let her go, God bless her
Where ever she may be
She can search this whole wide world over
She ain't never find another man like me
