dirty bourbon river show - st. james infirmary lyrics

Loading...

it was down in old joe’s barroom
on the corner by the square
the drinks, they served as usual
and the good ol’ towny crowd was there

when i stop, [?] messin’ round
[?]
he poured himself one more whiskey
and this is what he said:

“i was down to st. james infirmary, i saw my baby there
lyin’ on a cold white table
so sweet, cool and so fair
let her go, let her go, dear lord, bless her
wherever she may be
she may search this whole world over
but she’ll never find a sweet man like me”

when i die, you can bury me in straight laced shoes
and box-back coat and a stetson hat, [?]
and put a twenty dollar gold piece on my watch chain
so the boys’ll know i died standin’ pat

don’t m-ffle your drums, and spit them h-rns like fire
oh, play a fiddle march [?]
[???]
another good girl back to her home

now that you have heard my story
oh, pour me one more shot of booze
oh, and if anybody comes looking for me
you tell ’em i’ve got the st. james infirmary blues
