Take me down
To the infirmary
Lay me down
On cotton sheets
Put a damp cloth
On my forehead
Lay me down
And let me sleep
I know the whiskey wont soothe my soul
And the morphine wont heal my heart
But if you take me down to the infirmary
I wont have to sleep or drink alone.
So, take me down
To the infirmary
Walk a sound that is as blue as her eyes
Oh, sister magdelene wont you fetch the
Doctors flask.
He is going to need a steady
A steady hand
I know the whiskey it wont soothe my soul
And the morphine wont heal my heart
But if you take me down to the infirmary
I wont have to sleep or drink alone.
So, take me down
To the infirmary
Lay me down on cotton sheets
Put a damp cloth on my forehead
Lay me down let me sleep
Lay me down let me sleep
