Saint James Infirmary

Esperando el cuarto capítulo de Tremé, en el que al parecer alguien canta en algún momento un fragmento de esta maravilla:



I went down to the Saint James Infirmary
Saw my baby there
She was stretched out on a long white table
So cold, so sweet, so fair

Let her go, let her go, God bless her!
Wherever she may be
She can look this wide world over
But she'll never find a sweet man like me

When I die bury me in straight lace shoes
I wanna a boxback coat and a Stetson hat
Put a twenty dollar gold piece on my watch chain
So the boys will know that I died standing flat
