Goodnight Irene Lyrics

I'll see you in my dreams
Hey, Irene, goodnight, goodnight, Irene
I dream, goodnight, hmm
(Irene, goodnight, goodnight, Irene)
Girl, I wanna see you in my dreams

Last Saturday night I got married
Me and my wife settled down, oh yes we did
Now me and my wife are parting, yes we are now
Girl, I wanna take a little stroll downtown

Sometimes I live in the country, yes I do
Sometimes I live in town, oh yeah
Sometimes I take a great notion, yes I do sometimes
Girl, I'm gonna jump in the river and drown

And look at me, all alone, my money's gone
My mama's mad and I'm feeling bad

(Stop gambling) I'm gonna stop gambling
(Stop rambling) I'm gonna stop rambling too
(You better stop playing and staying up late at night)
Hey, hey that's some good advice

I'm going home (go home)
To my wife
My wife and family, yeah
(Irene)

There I'm gonna sit by the firesite so bright
Irene
Irene
Irene, I dream I just come to tell you goodnight now

Irene, goodnight, goodnight, Irene
(Girl, I'm gonna see you)
Girl, I'm gonna see you in my dreams
