Lyrics Went Down to St. James Infirmary - Cassandra Wilson
I
went
down
to
St.
James
Infirmary
I
saw
my
baby
lying
there
He
was
stretched
out
on
the
lawn
waiting
for
me
So
sweet,
so
cold,
so
bare
Hey
Let
him
go,
let
him
go,
God
bless
him
Wherever
he
may
be
He
can
search
this
whole
wide
world
over
But
he′ll
never
find
another
one
like
me
When
he
died,
I
dressed
him
in
straight-leg
shoes
A
box
back
coat
and
a
stetson
hat
Put
a
20
dollar
gold
piece
on
his
watch
chain
His
woman
doesn't
know
he
died
standing
pat
Let
him
go,
oh,
Lord
Wherever
he
may
be
I
know
if
he
searched
this
I
know
if
he
searched
this
whole
wide
world
over
He′ll
never
find
another
one
like
me
No,
no,
no,
no,
no
Oh,
no,
oh,
no,
no
Not
like
me,
no
Let
him
go
Wherever
he
may
be
He
can
search
this
whole
wide
world
over
But
he's
never
ever
gonna
find
one
like
me
When
he
died,
I
dressed
him
in
straight-leg
shoes
Box
back
coat
and
stetson
hat
I
put
a
20
dollar
gold
piece
on
his
watch
chain
So
all
other
boys
don't
know
he
died
standing
pat
Let
him
go,
let
him
go,
God
bless
him
Wherever
he
may
be
You
know
he
can
search
this
whole
wide
world
over
But
he′s
never
ever
gonna
find
another
little
girl
like
No,
he′ll
never
find
another
little
girl
like
No,
he'll
never
find
another
little
girl
like
No,
he′ll
never
find
No,
he'll
never
No,
no,
he′ll
never,
never
find,
find
Never
gonna
find
Never
gonna,
never
gonna
Never
gonna,
never
gonna
find
Never
ever
gonna
find
Never
gonna
find
a
girl
like
me,
no
Never
gonna
find
a
girl
like
me
Never
gonna
find
somebody
like
me,
no
