St. James Infirmary Blues / Those Gamblers Blues Em Am Em - C B7 - Em Am Em - C B7 Em Em Am Em I went down to St. James infirmary, C B7 To see my baby there, Em Am Em She was lying on a long white table C B7 Em So weak, so cool, so fair. I went up to see the doctor She´s very low he says I went back to see my baby Big god, she´s lying there dead It was down in old Joe's bar-room, On a corner of the square, The were serving drinks as usual, And the usual crowd was there. On my left stood old Joe McKenny, His eyes bloodshot red, He turned to the crowd that standing around him, And these are the words he said: "Let her go, let her go! God bless her, where ever she may be. She may serves the whole world over. But she´ll never find a man like me." When I die won´t you please burry me in my hard top Statson hat Put a gold piece on my watch chain, To God know´s I'm standin' pat. Get six gamblers to carry my coffin And six chorus girls to sing my song Put a Jazzband on my tail-gate So they can raise hell as we go along. That´s the end of my story Let´s have another round of booze And if anyone should ask you Tell them I got the St. James Infirmary Blues.
