Irene, I'll see you in my dreams
Last Saturday night I got married
Me and my wife settled down
When I'm here my wife get party
Goodnight, Irene, goodnight, Irene,
I'll see you in my dreams.
Sometimes I live in the country,
Sometimes I hear freight oceans
to jump into the river and drown
Goodnight, Irene, goodnight, Irene,
I'll see you in my dreams.
Stop ramblin' and stop gamblin'
Stop stayin' out late at night
And sit by the fire so bright
I love Irene, God knows I do,
Love her till the rivers run dry,
If Irene turns her back on me,
I'm gonna take my feet and die.
Goodnight, Irene, goodnight, Irene,
I'll see you in my dreams
Irene, goodnight, Irene, goodnight,
Irene, goodnight, Irene, goodnight,
I'll see you in my dreams.
Irene, goodnight, Irene, goodnight,
Goodnight, Irene, goodnight, Irene,
I'll see you in my dream.
