Goodnight Irene

(album: NUDES - 2018)

Last Saturday night I got married
Me and my wife settled down
Now me and my woman has parted
Think I'll take a stroll downtown

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

Some times I live in the country
Some times I live in the town
Some times 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 love her till the sea's run dry
But if Irene turns her back on
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 the fire so 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
