Red Foley - Goodnight Irene lyrics

rate me

HORUS

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

Me and my wife have parted

Gonna take another stroll down town.

REPEAT CHORUS

Sometimes I live in the country

Sometimes I live in town

Sometimes I take a fool notion

To jump in the river and drown.

REPEAT CHORUS

Stop ramblin', stop gamblin'

Stop stayin' out late at night

Go home to your wife and family

And stay by the fireside bright.

REPEAT CHORUS
