TESTO:
It was down at old Joe’s bar room
At the corner by the square
They were serving drink as usual
And the usual crowd was there
On my left stood big Joe MacKennedy
His eyes were bloodshot red
When he told me his sad old story
These were the very words he said
“I went down to St. james infirmary
And saw my baby there
Stretched out on a long, white table
So young, so cold, so fair
Let her go, let her go, god less her
Wherever she may be
She may search this wide world over
And never find another man like me”
