doc & merle watson - st. james infirmary lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i went down to that st. james infirmary
heard my baby groan
n0body there could cheer me
cause i known that she’d soon be gone

[verse 2]
and as i stood there a+greavin’
my heart felt just like lead
i knowed that she’d soon be leavin’
and wishin’ it was me instead

[first solo break]

[verse 3]
then i went out to old joe’s barroom
all the boys were there
n0body understood my troubles
’cause n0body seemed to care

[verse 4]
then i went back to the st. james infirmary
all was still as night
that was my baby on a long, white table
shе was pale and cold and white
[verse 5]
i put my hand on her prеtty face
felt cold like marble stone
and i knowed that no woman could ever take her place
lord, and it made me feel so alone

[second solo break]

[verse 6]
well, yes, she’s gone, she’s gone, god bless her
wherever she might be
if she’d looked this wide world over
she’d a+never found a friend like me

[verse 7]
give me my box+back coat and my b+tton shoes
when you laid me down to sleep
put a pad+handled cord up in my lapel
set my old guitar right down by my feet

[verse 1]
i went down to that st. james infirmary
heard my baby groan
n0body there could cheer me
’cause i known that she’d soon be gone
