I feel so blue and heart broken
Oh won't ain't my leavin for?
Oh my baby baby baby went away
And gone and he left me
Oh I never never never never do come back no more

I went down to the St. James Infirmary
Oh God and I heard my poor baby moan
Oh I feel so broken hearted
Cos my baby baby baby used to be all my own
He used to be all my own

Oh I tried, Oh God knows I tried
So hard to keep from crying
Oh I felt my heart
And it felt just like lead, yeah!

Oh it was all I ever had to live for
And I wish it could be me instead
Oh God why couldn't it be me instead
Oh never never no, no, no
Oh never no, no

Wooh God help me!

I went down to the St. James Infirmary
Oh God and I saw my poor baby there
Oh he was all stretched out on a big long white table
So cold and so still and so bare
Let it go, let it go oh let that poor man go
May God bless that man oh wherever he may be
Oh wherever
Oh you can search and it's hard or whatever
Oh he'll never never never never ever find a woman
Oh God he'll never find a woman
Who's half as good
Oh not even half as good as me
Oh never never never, no, no, no
