I went down to the St. James infirmary
And I see my baby there
She was stretched down on a long white table
So cold, so pretty, so fair
Let it go, let it go, God bless her
Wherever she may be
You can search the whole wide world over
But you never find a guy like me
There are sixteen coal black horses
They are tied to a rubber-tied hack
There are seven girls who are goin' to the graveyard
But only six of them are comin' back
And when I die, please, please, please, bury me
In a wide-?? Stetson hat
Place? a five-dollar gold piece on my watch chain
So them know that I never looked back
Let it go, let it go, God bless her
Wherever she may be
You can search the whole wide world over
But you never find a guy like me
No, you never find a guy like me
