Good Night Irene Lyrics

Good Night Irene lyrics

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 downtown



Sometimes I live in the country,

sometimes I live in town

Sometimes I take a great notion,

to jump into the river and drown



I love Irene, God knows I do,

I'll love her till the seas run
dry

But if Irene should turn me down,

I'd take the morphine and
die



Stop rambling, stop your gambling,

stop staying out late
at night

Go home to your wife and your family,

stay there by your
fireside bright
