Lyrics
Oh coco Well folks, I'm goin' down to st. james infirmary See my little baby there; She's stretched out on a long, white table Well she looks so good, so calm, so fair
Let her go, let her go, god bless her Wherever she may be You may search this whole wide world over But you'll never find another sweetheart like me
Take apart your bones and put 'em back together Tell your mama that you're somebody new Feel the breeze blowin', look out, here it comes Now I can say whatever I feel like to you
Then give six crap-shootin' pallbearers Let a chorus girl sing me a song Put a little odds on old sweet grace Hallelujah, as we go along
Folks, now that you have heard my story Say, boy, hand me another shot of that rye booze; And if anyone should ask you Just tell 'em I've got those st. james infirmary blues
