I went down to old Joe's barroom,
On the corner by the square
The drinks there were served as usual,
And the usual crowd was there.

On my left stood old Joe McKennedy,
And his eyes were bloodshot red;
He turned to the crowd around him,
These are the words he said:

I went down to St. James Infirmary
To see my baby there,
She was streched out on a long white table,
So fair, so cold, so dead

Oh, when I die, please bury me
In my ten dollar Stetson hat;
Put a twenty-dollar gold piece on my watch chain
So my friends'll know I died standin' pat.

I want six gamblers to carry my coffin
And chorus girls to sing me a song
Put a twenty-piece jazz band on my tail gate
To raise Hell as we go along

Let her go, let her go, let her go
God bless her, wherever she may be
She can search, she can search this whole wide world over
She'll never find a man sweeter than me
