lirik lagu st. james in fir miry blues – abner jay

i went on to old joe’s barroom
on that corner by the square
he was serving them drinks as usual
and the usual crowd was there
on my left stood ol’ joe mckenzie
his eyes were bloodshot red
he turned to the crowd around him
these are the wor’s he said
i went on to the saint james infirmary
i went on down to see my baby
she was stretched out on a long white table
so sweet, so cool, and so fair
i went up to see the doctor
she feeling kinda low he said
i went up to see my prеtty baby
pray god she was lying there dеad
let her go, let her go, god bless her
wherever she may be
she can search the whole world wide over
she’ll never find another sweet man like me
the worst tragedy of my life was the first time, when i got married
went down to the licence bureau for the licence
they asked, “did her parents consent?”
ah they would, and the devil you think that out there with that shotgun down ya boon
night of the wedding she she came down the aisle carrying four roses
she carried it well too
after the wedding it was kinda messy
cause they thought throwing rice
but the rice had already been cooked
then we left the crowd and went up in a room to put our things together
cause we was going on have a honeymoon
she wanted to go to selma alabama on the honeymoon
i wanted to go to miami beach
so we went to selma alabama on our honeymoon
she went out and had a sign put up over her bed, it read:
“i need thee every hour”
i went out and got a sign put up over my bed, it read:
“lord give me strength”
first, third and fourth day passed, then came the pause that refreshes
she said i’m like a load of fireworks
i’m no good after the fourth
she fascinated me cause i like to run my fingers through her money
one day we was playing checkers
and i tried to jump her
then i found out that ‘lecrticians not the only ones who try to eliminate shorts
my wife did
i found out she had a wooden leg
i was gon have her face lift, but i didn’t have no jack
then trouble started
nine years passed we had ten young’uns
double up one year, thought we’d take a year off
then she start smoking reefers
then she got a craving for the harder stuff
then she start on cocaine
like most of it, got the best of her
hear the end, the end of my story
let’s have another round of booze
if anybody here should ask you tell ’em i got the saint james infirmary blues
i got a saint fames in fir miry blues
