Goodnight Irene lyrics

[Chorus:]

Irene, goodnight. Irene, goodnight

Goodnight, Irene. Goodnight, Irene.

I'll see you in my dreams.

Last Saturday night I got married.

Me and my wife settled down.

Now, me and my wife are parted.

Gonna take a little stroll downtown.

[Chorus]

Yeah, sometimes I live in the country

And sometimes I live in town.

Yeah, and sometimes I take a great notion

I'm gonna jump in the river and drown.

[Chorus]

Stop ramblin'. Stop that gamblin'.

Stop staying out late at night.

Go home to your wife and family.

Stay there by the fireside, bright.

[Chorus]

Goodnight, Irene. Goodnight, Irene.

I'll see you in my dreams.
