    I lived in New Orleans for eight years. This song was a daily, if not hourly, play. This is the first rendition I have heard that made it unique. And to be clear, its hard to add to perfection.

    Well, I went down to St. James' Infirmary and I saw my baby there,
    She was laid out on that long white table, so sweet, so cold, so fair.
    Well, I went up to see the doctor, "She's feeling very low" he said,
    Well, I went back to see my baby, and good god, she was lying there dead.
    So let her go, let her go, God bless her soul.
    Wherever she may be.
    She may search this whole wide world over,
    And never find a motherfucker like me.
    Well, I went down to Old Joe's Ballroom,
    On the corner down by the square.
    They were serving drinks as usual,
    And all the usual folks were there.
    Well, to my left stood Old Joe McKennedy,
    His eyes were bloodshot red.
    And he turned to the crowd in front of him,
    And these were the very words that he said.
    He said, "Let her go, let her go, God bless her soul
    Wherever she may be.
    She may search this whole wide world over,
    And never find a motherfucker like me."
    So when I die won't you bury me,
    In my high-top Stetson hat.
    Put a twenty-dollar gold piece on my watch chain,
    So the devil knows I died standing pat.
    Six gamblers to carry my coffin,
    With chorus girls to sing me a song.
    Put a jazz band on the horse wagon,
    To raise Hell as we roll along.
    So bring out the rubber tied carridge,
    Go ahead and bring out the pony and drive.
    Twelve men going down to that graveyard,
    Only eleven of them ever coming back.
    So let her go, let her go, God bless her soul,
    Wherever she may be.
    She may search this whole wide world over,
    And never find a motherfucker like me.
    So now, they've heard my story,
    Well, let's buy another round of booze.
    And if anyone ever should ask you,
    I got the St. James' Infirmary blues.

    • @seanharris2320
      @seanharris2320 3 года назад +8

      It's an OLD jazz song - 1930s?. It was a folk song that became a jazz song - and a guy named Irv Mills (who was Jewish) had publishing rights/writing credits, so the song has come full circle in 100 years. I like "Klezmer" type music and I like jazz, so this is pretty cool.
      If you took away visuals and "the look" of the band, you'd be hearing elements of dixieland swing jazz played on what has been popularized as "bluegrass" instruments. It sounds right out of the south but this music was Cotton Club & The Savoy before that and probably in the roadhouses before that. IF you didn't see them, would you still be so enamored of this music? I'm asking myself that same question! I know this song and I think it is great that it is reaching a new audience, so I'd say I still like it.

    Hey I like a lot of this music! I used to play guitar in a metal style but now I am learning on a banjolele sort of like Libby's but I cannot get the hang of using a pick in this way. Then I tried plectrums on three fingers ( kind of strange in this setting I know) without success. I am sold on claw hammer! That is a lot of fun and it makes me want a bluegrass banjo. My point to any musicians out there is that you should try a broad range of techniques even if you are comfortable where you are.

    I listened to them after finding them accidentally while looking for a different version of song of the sirens. I haven't stopped listening to them since this afternoon. Adding as many as I could my playlist. This has to be my personal favorite. But of course I love the original cartoon Betty boop cab Calloway original. This just takes it to another level.
    they remind me of one of my favorite bands from my youth. Squirrel nut zippers from the '90s. If they had a very very naughty side. This song specifically reminds me of Blue Angel, Katherine Whalen's voice is one of a goddess. Just like her here....
    AMAZING cover.

    All you people trying to compare this band to another, they sound like this or that. They sound like Bridge city Sinners. And you love it.

    The Bridge City Sinners - St. James Infirmary
    Well, I went down to St. James' Infirmary and I saw my baby there
    She was laid out on that long white table, so sweet, so cold, so fair
    Well, I went up to see the doctor, "She's feeling very low" he said
    Well, I went back to see my baby
    And good god, she was lying there dead
    So let her go, let her go, God bless her soul
    Wherever she may be
    She may search this whole wide world over
    And never find a motherfucker like me
    Well, I went down to Old Joe's Ballroom
    On the corner down by the square
    They were serving drinks as usual
    And all the usual folks were there
    Well, to my left stood Old Joe McKennedy
    His eyes were bloodshot red
    And he turned to the crowd in front of him
    And these were the very words that he said
    He said, "Let her go, let her go, God bless her soul
    Wherever she may be
    She may search this whole wide world over
    And never find a motherfucker like me."
    So when I die won't you bury me
    In my high-top Stetson hat
    Put a twenty-dollar gold piece on my watch chain
    So the devil knows I died standing pat
    Six gamblers to carry my coffin
    With chorus girls to sing me a song
    Put a jazz band on the horse wagon
    To raise Hell as we roll along
    So bring out the rubber tied carridge
    Go ahead and bring out the pony and drive
    Twelve men going down to that graveyard
    Only eleven of them ever coming back
    So let her go, let her go, God bless her soul
    Wherever she may be
    She may search this whole wide world over
    And never find a motherfucker like me
    So now, they've heard my story
    Well, let's buy another round of booze
    And if anyone ever should ask you
    I got the St. James' Infirmary blues
