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

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
Stop ramblin'. Stop that gamblin']

Stop staying out late at night
Go home to your wife and family
Stay there by the fireside, bright
Goodnight, irene
Goodnight, irene
I'll see you in my dreams
