1.

on the corner by the square,

the drinks were served as usually and

the usual  crowd was there.

2.

On my left stood Jon Mc Canedy

and his eyes are blood shut red

he turned to the crowd around him

and this were the words he said.

3.

Went down Saint James Infirmary

and I saw my baby there

stretched out on the long white table

so sweet, so could, so bare.

4.

When I die, please Barry me

with my High-Top-Stetson-Head

put a twenty dollar-gold-peace on watch-shine

so the gang will know I'm standing pat.
