Lyrics:

I went down to St. James Infirmary
And I heard my baby moan.
And I felt so broken hearted.
She used to be my very own.

I tried so hard to keep from crying.
My heart felt just like lead.
She was all that I had to live for.
Oh, I wish it was me instead.

Now she's gone, she's gone and may God bless her
Wherever she may be.
She can search this wide world over
Oh, but she'll never find a man like me.
She's gone, she's gone...
She's gone.
