Louis Armstrong
St. James Infirmary (Gambler’s Blues)
[Instrumental]

[Intro]
Yes, yes, yes
Yes, yes, yes

[Verse 1]
I went down to St. James Infirmary
Saw my baby there
She was stretched out on a long white table
So cold, so sweet, so fair

[Verse 2]
Let her go, let her go!
God bless her wherever she may be
She can search this wide world over
But she'll never find a sweet man like me (Ha-ha-ha, braggin')

[Verse 3]
When I die bury me in straight lace shoes
And a box-back suit, double-breasted
Put a twenty dollar gold piece on my watch chain
Yes so the boys will know that I died standin' pat

[Instrumental]
