Goodnight Irene [1950] Songtext
von Gene Autry

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 going to take a stroll into town.
Irene, good night
Irene, good night
Good night, Irene, good night, Irene
I′ll see you in my dreams.
Sometimes I live in the country
Sometimes I live in the town


Sometimes 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.
Stop your ramblin' and gamblin′
Stop staying out late at night.
Go home to your wife and your family
Stay home by your fireside so bright.
Irene, good night
Irene, good night
Good night, Irene, good night, Irene
I′ll see you in my dreams.
