Joe Cocker - St. James Infirmary lyrics
[Joe Cocker - St. James Infirmary lyrics]
I went down to StJames infirmary
To see my baby there
She was stretched out on a cold white table
So sweetso leanand so fair
Let her golet her gogod bless her
Wherever she may be
She can search the whole wide world
But she'll never find another man like me
When I die you can bury
Me in plain lace shoes
Stetson with a twenty dollar hat
And put a thirty dollar gold
Piece on my watch chain
And let the fellas know that
I died standing pat
I went down to StJames infirmary
And I stole my baby back
She was stretched out on a long white table
So sweetso coldand so fair
To see my baby there
She was stretched out on a cold white table
So sweetso leanand so fair
Let her golet her gogod bless her
Wherever she may be
She can search the whole wide world
But she'll never find another man like me
When I die you can bury
Me in plain lace shoes
Stetson with a twenty dollar hat
And put a thirty dollar gold
Piece on my watch chain
And let the fellas know that
I died standing pat
I went down to StJames infirmary
And I stole my baby back
She was stretched out on a long white table
So sweetso coldand so fair
