I went down to St. James Infirmary Found my baby there Stretched out on a long white table Lookin' so cool, so pale and so fair Let her go, let her go, God bless her Wherever she may be She can search this wide wide world over But she would never find a good man like me When I die bury me in straight trousers Boxback coat, yes, and a Stetson hat Hang a thousand dollar gold piece on my watch chain So the boys will know that I died standing pat I want sixteen, sixteen stalwart white horses Yeah Let her go, let her go, God bless her Wherever she may be She may search this wide world over She'll never find a good man like me
