st. james infirmary

Lyrics

i went down to old joe's bar, on the corner by the square, all the men were having drinks, same as usual, and the same old crowd was there, oh, no. on my left stood my good friend, joseph mcginley, oh his eyes were blood-shot and red, and he turned to the people standing by him, and these are the words he said. i went down to that st. james infirmary, they had my baby there, she was lying on a long, long white table, yeah, so cold, so still. she was dead, oh no. let her go, let her go god bless her, wherever she may be, she can search, search this whole world wide over, but she'll never, find another man as good as me, no she'll never, never find another man, who'll treat her like i did, give her all my money, yeah, never find another man like me, no, she'll never, find another man, who'll treat her like i did
