Goodnight Irene
H.Ledbetter / J.Lomax
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
