Goodnight Irene

Irene goodnight

Irene goodnight

Goodnight Irene

Goodnight Irene

I'll see you in my dreams

Sometimes I live in the country

Sometimes I live in town

Sometimes I take a great notion

To jump in the river and drown

Irene goodnight

Irene goodnight

Goodnight Irene

Goodnight Irene

I'll see you in my dreams

I love Irene God knows I do

I love her till the sea run dry

But if Irene should turn me down

I'm gonna jump to river and drown

Irene goodnight

Irene goodnight

Goodnight Irene

Goodnight Irene

I'll see you in my dreams

Stop rambling, stop your gambling,

Stop staying out late at night,

Go home to your wife and family,

And stay by your fireside bright.

Irene goodnight

Irene goodnight

Goodnight Irene

Goodnight Irene

I'll see you in my dreams
