Irene good night Irene good night
Good night Irene Good night 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 have parted
I'm gonna take a little stroll downtown

Irene good night Irene good night
Good night Irene Good night Irene
I'll see you in my dreams

Some times I live in the country
Some times I live in town
Some times I take a great notion
To jump in the river and drown

Good night Irene Good night Irene
I'll see you in my dreams

Stop your rambling 'n' gambling
Stop staying out late at night
Go home to your wife and family
Stay at home by the fireside tonight

Irene good night Irene good night
Good night Irene Good night Irene
I'll see you in my dreams
(Irene good night Irene good night)
Good night Irene Good night Irene
I'll see you in my dreams
(Goodnight) I'll see you in my dreams
(Goodnight) I'll see you in my dreams
