Lyrics:
The very last words that I heard her say Was please sing me one more song 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 Now me and my wife are parted I'm gonna take another stroll downtown Stop rambling, stop your rambling Stop staying out late at night Go home to your wife and family Stay there by your fireside bright I love Irene God knows I do Love her till the seas run dry And if Irene should turn me down I's take the morphine and die |
