Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Irene, goodnight
Irene, goodnight
Goodnight, Irene, goodnight, Irene
I'll see you in my dreams
[Verse 2]
Last Saturday night, I got married
Me and my wife settled down
Now me and my wife are parted
I'm gonna take another stroll downtown
[Verse 3]
Irene, goodnight
Irene, goodnight
Goodnight, Irene, goodnight, Irene
I'll see you in my dreams
[Verse 4]
Sometimes I live in the country
Sometimes I live in town
Sometimes I take a great notion
To jump into the river and drown
[Verse 5]
Irene, goodnight
Irene, goodnight
Goodnight, Irene, goodnight, Irene
I'll see you in my dreams
[Verse 6]
Stop ramblin', stop your gamblin'
Stop stayin' out late at night
Go home to your wife and family
Stay there by your fireside bright
[Verse 7]
Irene, goodnight
Irene, goodnight
Goodnight, Irene, goodnight, Irene
I'll see you in my dreams
[Verse 8]
Goodnight, Irene, goodnight, Irene
I'll see you in my dreams
Goodnight, Irene, goodnight, Irene
I'll see you in my dreams
