St. James Infirmary letra

Rufus Wainwright:
Early one morning at the St. James Infirmary
Early one morning in the month of May
I spied a young cowboy all wrapped in white linen
All wrapped in white linen, and as cold as the clay

Martha Wainwright & McGarrigles:
Come sit down beside me, come and hear my sad story
Come sit down beside me come and hear my sad song
And tell me, for my poor head is aching and my sad heart is breaking
I'm a poor, rundown cowboy and Hell is my doom

Group:
Send for the doctor, come and heal my body
Send for the preacher come and heal up my soul
For my poor head is aching and my sad heart is breaking
I'm a poor, rundown cowboy and Hell is my doom

Give me six dainty maidens, come and carry my coffin
Give me six dainty maidens, come and carry me home
And tell them to bring some of them sweet-smelling lilies
So they won't have to smell me as they carry me along
