Irene (Goodnight Irene) - Lead Belly

Irene good night Irene good night

Good night Irene Good night 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 have parted

I’m gonna take a little stroll downtown

Irene good night Irene good night

Good night Irene Good night Irene

I’ll see you in my dreams

Some times I live in the country

Some times I live in town

Some times I take a great notion

To jump in the river and drown

Irene good night Irene good night

Good night Irene Good night Irene

I’ll see you in my dreams

Quit your rambling quit your gambling

Stop staying out late at night

Stay home with your wife and family

And stay by the fireside of right

Irene good night Irene good night

Good night Irene Good night Irene

I’ll see you in my dreams

Irene good night Irene good night

Good night Irene Good night Irene

I’ll see you in my dreams
