Summary: How do I download this Mp3?Mp3: St. James Infirmary One of the great blues from New Orleans, originally 'Gambler's Blues.' Lyrics: [Em] I went down to [Am] St. James [Em] Infirmary. [Em] I saw my [C] baby [B7] there. [Em] Lying on a [Am] long white table, [C] So sweet, [B7] so cold, [Em] so fair. I went up to see the doctor. 'She's very low,' he said. I went back to see my baby And great god she was lying there dead. I went down to Old Joe's Bar-room. Down on the corner by the square. They were serving drinks as usual. And the usual crowd was there. On my left stood Joe MacKennedy. His eyes were blood-shot red. He turned to the crowd around him And these are the words that he said. Let her go, let her go, God bless her. Wherever she may be. She may search this wide world over But she'll never find another man like me. When I die please bury me In a high top stetson hat. Put a gold piece on my watch chain. So the boys will know I died standing pat. Get six gamblers to carry my coffin. Six chorus girls to sing my song. Put a jazz band on my tailgate To raise hell as we roll along. This is the end of my story. So let's have another round of booze. And if any one should ask you just tell them I've got the St. James Infirmary Blues.
