Goodnight Irene

Irene good night
Irene good night
Good night Irene
Good night Irene
I'll hold you in my

Sometimes I live in the country
Sometimes I live in town
Sometimes I have the big notion
To jump in the ocean and drown

Irene good night
Irene good night
Good night Irene
Good night Irene
I'll hold you in my dreams

The winter can get heated
The summer can be so cold
Affection you were seeking
Trouble is what I sold

Irene good night
Irene good night
Good night Irene
Good night Irene
I'll hold you in my dreams

Two Aprils ago, I got married
Me and my wife settled down
Me and my wife are now parted
And here I am downtown

Irene good night
Irene good night
Good night Irene
Good night Irene
I'll hold you in my dreams

I asked your mother for you
She told me you were too young
Wish to the Lord, I'd never seen your face
I'm sorry that I was born

Irene good night
Irene good night
Good night Irene
Good night Irene
I'll hold you in my dreams

I dreamed Irene was here tonight
I'll love here til the seas run dry
If Irene turns her back on me
I'll take morphine and die

Irene good night
Irene good night
Good night Irene
Good night Irene
I'll hold you in my dreams

Stop ramblin', stop gamblin'
Stop staying out late at night
Get back home to your family
Stay by the fire side bright

Irene good night
Irene good night
Good night Irene
Good night Irene
I'll hold you in my dreams

You caused me to weep, yeah you caused me to moan
You made me lose my happy home
And the very last thing I heard you say
Was please, sing one more song

Irene good night
Irene good night
Good night Irene
Good night Irene
I'll hold you in my dreams

Irene good night
Irene good night
Good night Irene
Good night Irene
I'll hold you in my dreams

Irene good night
Irene good night
Good night Irene
Good night Irene
I'll hold you in my
Dreams
