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 |
|
Sometimes I live in the country, |
|
Sometimes I live in town |
|
Sometimes I take a great notion, |
|
To jump into the river and drown |
|
I love Irene, God knows I do, |
|
I'll love her till the seas run dry |
|
But if Irene should turn me down, |
|
I'd take the morphine and die |
|
Stop rambling, stop your gambling, |
|
Stop staying out late at night |
|
Go home to your wife and your family, |
|
Stay there by your fireside bright |
