Take Me Down To The Infirmary - Cracker

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, it won’t soothe my soul

And the morphine won’t heal my heart

But if you take me down to the infirmary

I won’t have to sleep or drink alone

So, take me down

To the infirmary

Walk a sound that’s as blue as her eyes

Oh, sister Magdalene won’t you fetch the doctor’s flask

He is going to need a steady

A steady hand

I know the whiskey, it won’t soothe my soul

And the morphine won’t heal my heart

But if you take me down to the infirmary

I won’t 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
