Louis Armstrong – St.James’ Infirmary

scritto da admin

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
