Goodnight Irene

(album: Ragged But Right - 2010)

Saturday night, I got married
Me and my wife settled down
Now me and my wife are parting
Going to take another walk downtown

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

Sometimes I live in the country
Sometimes I live right here in town
Sometimes I get a fool notion
I'm gonna jump off in the river and drown

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

Stop rambling, stop your gambling
Stop staying out late every night
Stay home with your wife and children
Stay by the fireside light

Irene, goodnight
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
