St James Infirmary — текст песни (Louis Armstrong)

I went down to the st james infirmary

Saw my baby there

Stretched out on a long white table

So sweet...so cold...so fair



Let her go...let her go...god bless her

Wherever she may be

She can look this wide world over

But shell never find a sweet man like me



When I die want you to dress me in straight lace shoes

I wanna a boxback coat and a stetson hat

Put a twenty dollar gold piece on my watch chain

So the boysll know that I died standing flat
