St John's Infirmary
You may have an ache and you may have a strain
You may find it difficult dealing with the pain
Life gives you no reason for living
There's so much blame and no forgiving
Where is there hope when there is no believing?
If your days are sad and gray
I know a place where you can stay
And soon you'll see
You're feeling better
They put no needles in my vein
They don't use drugs to ease my pain
Just a song I'm holding in my heart
Da da da da da da da da
Just a world where no one lives apart
Where would I be without your love and protection
How would I ever make it through the day?
Saint John's infirmary is the place for me
Lying in the shade of a chestnut tree
Brother Serra builds a house of rock
Sister Mary carves a rosary
The river's honey the nights are sunny
They chase the blues away
They hold me they feed me
They keep the devil way the devil away
They have nothing but love for you
Everything they say is always true
In a week or two you'll feel like new
With a song you're holding in your heart
Da da da da da
In a world where no one lives apart
Where would I be without your love and protection
How would I ever make it through the day?
Saint John's infirmary is the place for me
Lying in the shade of a chestnut tree
Brother Serra builds a house of rock
Sister Mary carves a rosary
Saint John's infirmary is the place for me
Lying in the shade of a chestnut tree
Brother Serra builds a house of rock
Sister Mary carves a rosary
You may find it difficult dealing with the pain
Life gives you no reason for living
There's so much blame and no forgiving
Where is there hope when there is no believing?
If your days are sad and gray
I know a place where you can stay
And soon you'll see
You're feeling better
They put no needles in my vein
They don't use drugs to ease my pain
Just a song I'm holding in my heart
Da da da da da da da da
Just a world where no one lives apart
Where would I be without your love and protection
How would I ever make it through the day?
Saint John's infirmary is the place for me
Lying in the shade of a chestnut tree
Brother Serra builds a house of rock
Sister Mary carves a rosary
The river's honey the nights are sunny
They chase the blues away
They hold me they feed me
They keep the devil way the devil away
They have nothing but love for you
Everything they say is always true
In a week or two you'll feel like new
With a song you're holding in your heart
Da da da da da
In a world where no one lives apart
Where would I be without your love and protection
How would I ever make it through the day?
Saint John's infirmary is the place for me
Lying in the shade of a chestnut tree
Brother Serra builds a house of rock
Sister Mary carves a rosary
Saint John's infirmary is the place for me
Lying in the shade of a chestnut tree
Brother Serra builds a house of rock
Sister Mary carves a rosary
