Goodnight Irene Songtext
von Lucius

Last Saturday night I got married, me and my wife settled down
Now me and my woman is parted, think I′ll tale a stroll downtown

Irene, goodnight
Irene, goodnight
Goodnight Irene, goodnight 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, goodnight
Irene, goodnight
Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene
I′ll see you in my dreams


I love Irene, God knows I do,
I'll live her 'til the sees go dry
But if Irene turns hers back on me, 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 they fireside 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
