Last Saturday night I got married Me and my wife settled down Now me and my woman has parted Think I'll take a stroll downtown Irene goodnight Irene goodnight Goodnight Irene Goodnight Irene I'll see you in my dreams Some times I live in the country Some times I live in the town Some times I take a great notion To jump in the river and drown Irene goodnight Irene goodnight Goodnight Irene Goodnight Irene I'll see you in my dreams I love Irene, God knows I do I'll love her till the sea's run dry But if Irene turns her back on Gonna take morphine and die Irene goodnight Irene goodnight Goodnight Irene Goodnight Irene I'll see you in my dreams Stop rambling, stop gambling Stop staying out late at night Go home to your wife and family Sit down by the fire so bright Irene goodnight Irene goodnight Goodnight Irene Goodnight Irene I'll see you in my dreams Goodnight Irene Goodnight Irene I'll see you in my dreams
