Irene goodnight Irene goodnight
Goodnight Irene Goodnight Irene I'll see you in my dreams

Last Saturday night I got married me and my wife settled down
Me and my wife have parted gonna take another stroll downtown

Irene goodnight Irene goodnight...

Sometimes I live in the country sometimes I live in town
Sometimes I take a big notion to jump in the river and drown

Irene goodnight Irene goodnight...

Stop rambling stop gambling stop staying out late at night
Go home to your wife and family and stay by the far side bright

Irene goodnight Irene goodnight...
I'll see you in my dreams
