Saint James Infirmary Songtext
von Louis Armstrong

I went down to Saint James Infirmary
Saw my baby there
She was stretched out on a long white table
So cold, so sweet, so fair


Let her go, let her go, god bless her
Wherever she may be
She can look this wide world over
But she′ll never find a sweet man like me (braggin')

When I die, bury me in straight lace shoes
I want a box-back coat, and a Stetson hat (John B., that is)
Put a twenty dollar gold piece on my watch chain
So the boys will know that I died standing pat
