I went down to St. James infirmary
And I saw my baby lying there
She was stretched out on a long white table, yeah
So sweet, so calm, so dear
She's gone, gone, gone
She's gone, gone, gone
I went down to St. James infirmary
And I saw, I saw my baby lying there
She was stretched out on a long white table
She was so sweet, so cold, so dear
She's gone, gone, gone
She's gone, gone, gone
Let her go, now
Now let's just say they'er gonna bless her
Wherever, whever she may be
She may search this whole wide world over
But she'll never find another man like me
