St. James Infirmary 외

Feel the Blues

 

1.St.James Infirmary/Blues Underground
 
  I went down to st james infirmary
  To see my baby there
  She was stretched out on a cold white table
  So sweet...so cold...and so fair
 
  Let her go...let her go...god bless her
  Wherever she may be
  She can search the whole wide world
  But she'll never find another man like me

 When I die you can bury me in plain lace shoes
  Stetson with a twenty dollar hat
  And put a thirty dollar gold piece on my watch chain
  And let the fellas know that I died standing pat

   I went down to st james infirmary
   And I stole my baby back
   She was stretched out on a long white table
   So sweet...so cold...and so fair

 가사의 내용은 불치병으로 세인트 제임스 병원에 입원해 있는
연인에 대한 사랑을 노래한 것으로 나의 반쪽인 
그녀와 같은 여자는 세상 어디서도 다시는 만날 수 없는 
그런  사람이니 차라리 그 연인을 대신해 자신을 죽여 
달라고 애원하는 그런 애절한 내용.
