Letra Goodnight Irene - Red Foley & Ernest Tubb
(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.
(repeat 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.
(end song with chorus repeat)
