Last Saturday night I got married
Me and my wife settled down
Now me and my wife are parted

Gonna take a little stroll downtown

Irene goodnight, Irene goodnight

Goodnight Irene, Goodnight Irene
I´ll see you in my dreams


Stop ramblin´, stop your gamblin´
Stop stayin´out late at night
Come home to your wife and your family

And sit by the fire so bright

Irene goodnight, Irene goodnight

Goodnight Irene, Goodnight Irene
I´ll see you in my dreams


I love Irene, God knows I do
Love her ´til the rivers run dry
If irene should ever turn her back on me

Gonna take morphine and die

Irene goodnight, Irene goodnight

Goodnight Irene, Goodnight Irene
I´ll see you in my dreams
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
