Lyrics
Last Saturday night I got married
Me and my wife settled down
Now, me and my wife are parted
Gonna take another stroll downtown
Irene, goodnight
Irene, goodnight
Goodnight, Irene,goodnight, Irene
I'll see you in my dreams
Sometimes I live in the country
Sometimes I live in town
Sometimes I take a full notion
To jump in the river and drown
Irene, goodnight
Irene, goodnight
Goodnight, Irene,goodnight, Irene
I'll see you in my dreams
Stop you ramblin'
Stop your gamblin'
Stop stayin' out late at night
Go home to your wife and family
Stay there by the fireside, bright
Irene, goodnight
Irene, goodnight
Goodnight, Irene,goodnight, Irene
I'll see you in my dreams
Writer(s): Huddie Ledbetter, Alan Lomax, John Sr. Lomax
