Saint James Infirmary - Cisco Houston/Woody Guthrie[00:00:00]
It was down in old Joe's barroom[00:00:06]
On the corner by the square[00:00:12]
They drinks they were serving drunk as usual[00:00:18]
And the usual crowd was there[00:00:23]
On my left they stood Big Joe McKennedy[00:00:32]
And his eyes were bloodshot red[00:00:38]
And they look down crowd around him[00:00:43]
And these are the very words he said[00:00:49]
I was down to St James infirmary[00:00:54]
I saw my baby there[00:01:00]
She was stretched out on a long white table[00:01:06]
So cool so pair and fair[00:01:11]
Let her go let her go God bless her[00:01:22]
Wherever she may be[00:01:28]
She can search this wide world over[00:01:34]
And never find another man like me[00:01:39]
When I die please bury me in my high top Stetson hat[00:01:45]
Just put a twenty dollar gold piece on my watch chain[00:01:55]
So the gang'll know I'm standing pat[00:02:01]
I want six crapshooters for my pallbearers[00:02:06]
And chorus girl to sing me a song[00:02:12]
Put a jazz band on my hearse wagon[00:02:17]
Just raise hell as we stroll along[00:02:22]
Now that you have heared my story[00:02:28]
I'll take another shot of booze[00:02:33]
If anyone should happen to ask you[00:02:38]
Well I've got those gamblers' blues[00:02:44]
