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
