(Goodnight) Irene - Huddie Ledbetter

Last Saturday night I got married me and my wife settled down

Now me and my wife are parted gonna take another stroll downtown

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 fool notion to jump in the river and drown

Irene goodnight Irene goodnight

Goodnight Irene Goodnight Irene I’ll see you in my dreams

Stop your ramblin' stop your gamblin' stop stayin' out late at night

Go home to your wife and family stay there by the fireside bright

Irene goodnight Irene goodnight

Goodnight Irene Goodnight Irene I’ll see you in my dreams
