Bobby Bare - Goodnight Irene lyrics

rate me

Goodnight Irene goodnight Irene<br />

I'll see you in my dreams.<br />

<br />

Sometimes I live in the country<br />

Sometimes I live in town<br />

Sometimes I take a big notion<br />

To jump in the river and drown.<br />

<br />

And say Irene goodnight, Irene<br />

Irene goodnight<br />

Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene<br />

I'll see you in my dreams.<br />

<br />

I love Irene God knows<br />

I do love her till sea runs dry<br />

And if Irene turns her back on me<br />

I'll lay right down and I'll die.<br />

<br />

And say Irene goodnight, Irene<br />

Irene goodnight<br />

Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene<br />

I'll see you in my dreams.<br />

<br />

<br />

Last Saturday night I got married<br />

Me and my wife settled down<br />

Now me and my wife just parted<br />

So I'll take another stroll downtown.<br />

<br />

Yeah, Irene goodnight, Irene<br />

Irene goodnight<br />

Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene<br />

I'll see you in my dreams.<br />

<br />

Hey, rambler stop your ramblin'<br />

Stop stayin' out late at night<br />

Go home to your wife and the family<br />

Stay by the fireside bright.<br />

<br />

Yeah, Irene goodnight, Irene<br />

Irene goodnight<br />

Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene<br />

I'll see you in my dreams.<br />

<br />

--- Instrumental ---<br />

<br />

Irene, goodnight Irene<br />

Irene goodnight<br />

Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene<br />

I'll see you in my dreams.<br />

<br />

Irene, goodnight Irene<br />

Irene goodnight<br />

Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene<br />

I'll see you in my dreams...
