Doc & Merle Watson - St. James Infirmary

Kishore Kumar Hits — Doc & Merle Watson - St. James Infirmary lyrics

Artist: Doc & Merle Watson

album: Remembering Merle

I went down to that St. James infirmary
I heard sweet baby groan
Nobody down there could cheer me
'Cause I know that she'd soon be gone
As I was standing there a grievin
My heart feeling just like lead
Knowing she'd soon be leavin
Wishing it was me instead
I went out to Old Joe's bar room
Most of my friends were there
But nobody seemed to understand my trouble
I tell you, nobody seemed to care
And when i got back to that St. James infirmary
All was still as night
Sweet baby layed on that long long table
She was pale, so cold and white
And when I put my hand on her pretty face
It was cold like marble stone
And I know that no woman could ever take her place
Lord it made me feel so alone
She's gone, yes she's gone God bless her
Whereever she might be
If she'd searched this whole world over
She wouldn't have found a friend as good as me
I went down to that St. James infirmary
Heard my sweet baby groan
Nobody down there could cheer me
'Cause I know that she'd soon be gone
