Okkervil River - Black Sheep Boy (10th Anniversary Edition)

Goodnight, Irene

Irene, goodnight
Irene, goodnight
Goodnight, Irene
Goodnight, Irene
I guess you're in my dreams

Sometimes I live in the country
Sometimes I live in town
Sometimes I have these great notions
Jump into the river and drown

Irene, goodnight
Irene, goodnight
Goodnight, Irene
Goodnight, Irene
I guess you're in my dreams

I asked your mother for you
She told me you were too young
I wished to God I'd never seen your face
I'm sorry I'd ever been born

Irene, goodnight
Irene, goodnight
Goodnight, Irene
Goodnight, Irene
I guess you're in my dreams

I love Irene, God knows I do
I love her 'til the seas run dry
And if Irene goes back on me
Gonna take morphine and die

Irene, goodnight
Irene, goodnight
Goodnight, Irene
Goodnight
