well,Irene goodnight |
|
Irene goodnight |
|
goodnight Irene,goodnight Irene |
|
I'll see you in my dream |
|
Last saturday night,I got married |
|
Me and my wife settled down |
|
Now me and my wife are parted |
|
I'm gonna take another stroll downtown |
|
Irene goodnight |
|
goodnight Irene,goodnight Irene |
|
I'll see you in my dream |
|
Sometimes I live in the country, |
|
|
|
Sometimes I live in town, |
|
Sometimes I take a great notion, |
|
To jump into the river and drown, |
|
well,Irene goodnight,Irene goodnight |
|
goodnight Irene,goodnight Irene |
|
I'll see you in my dream |
|
You caused me to weep, you caused me to mourn, |
|
You caused me to leave my home. |
|
But the very last words I heard her say, |
|
Was please sing me one more song. |
|
Irene goodnight,Irene goodnight |
|
goodnight Irene,goodnight Irene |
|
I'll see you in my dream |
|
Stop rambling,stop your gambling |
|
Stop staying out late at night |
|
Go home to your wife and your family |
|
Stay down by your fireside bright |
|
well,Irene goodnight,Irene goodnight |
|
goodnight Irene,goodnight Irene |
|
I'll see you in my dream |
|
goodnight Irene,goodnight Irene |
|
I'll see you in my dream... |
