Take Me Down To The Infirmary

So, take me down
To the infirmary
And lay me down
On cotton sheets
Put a damp cloth
On my forehead
And lay me down
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, oh yeah
I won't have to sleep
Or drink alone
So, take me down
To the infirmary
They'll walk a sound that's as blue as her eyes
Oh, Sister Magdalene
Won't you fetch the doctor's flask
He's gonna' need a steady (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, oh yeah
I won't have to sleep
Or drink alone
So, take me down
To the infirmary
And lay me down
On cotton sheets
Put a damp cloth
On my forehead
And lay me down
Let me sleep
Lay me down
Let me sleep
