Irene, good night, Irene good night good night Irene, good night Irene I'll see you in my dreams 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 down-town Sometimes I live in the country sometimes I live in the town sometimes I take a great notion to jump into the river and drown Stop your rambling, stop your gambling stop saing uot late at night Go home to your wife and your family stay there by your fireside bright I love Irene, God knows I do, I'll love her till the sea runs dry And if Irene should ever leave me I'd take morphine and die. |
