[Chorus:]
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 settle down,
Now me and my wife are parted,
I'm gonna take another stroll in town.
[Chorus]
Sometimes I live in the country,
Sometimes I live in town,
Sometimes I have a great notion,
To jump in the river and drown.
[Repeat Chorus]
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 settle down,
Now me and my wife are parted,
I'm gonna take another stroll in town.
[Chorus]
Sometimes I live in the country,
Sometimes I live in town,
Sometimes I have a great notion,
To jump in the river and drown.
[Repeat Chorus]
