St. James Infirmary

Well, I walked on home on the sidewalk I began looking around I looked everywhere I thought she'd be My baby couldn't be found And I passed by the big infirmary And I heard my sweetheart moan Gee It hurts me to see you here You know you used to be my own I went in to see the doctor Your gal is low, he said I went back in to see my baby My God she lying there dead Sixteen coal black horses All hitched up in line In that pretty buggy she's ridin' Goodbye old gal of mine When I die you can bury me standing In my high top Stetson hat Put a twenty dollar gold piece on my watch chain And tell the folks I died standin' pat Let her go, God bless her Wherever she may be She can search this wide world all over She'll never find a sweeter man as me Sixteen coal black horses All hitched up in line In that pretty buggy she's ridin' Goodbye old gal of mine
