Irene, Good Night







20
 
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 are parted
I'm gonna take another stroll down-town
 
Sometimes I live in the country
sometimes I live in the town
sometimes I take a great notion
to jump into the river and drown
 
Stop your rambling, stop your gambling
stop saing uot late at night
Go home to your wife and your family
stay there by your fireside bright
 
I love Irene, God knows I do,
I'll love her till the sea runs dry
And if Irene should ever leave me
I'd take morphine and die.
