Irene, goodnight
Irene, goodnight
Goodnight, Irene
Goodnight, Irene
I guess you're in my dreams
Sometimes I live in the country
Sometimes I live in town
Sometimes I have these great notions
Jump into the river and drown
Irene, goodnight
Irene, goodnight
Goodnight, Irene
Goodnight, Irene
I guess you're in my dreams
I asked your mother for you
She told me you were too young
I wished to God I'd never seen your face
I'm sorry I'd ever been born
Irene, goodnight
Irene, goodnight
Goodnight, Irene
Goodnight, Irene
I guess you're in my dreams
ย
I love Irene, God knows I do
I love her 'til the seas run dry
And if Irene goes back on me
Gonna take morphine and die
Irene, goodnight
Irene, goodnight
Goodnight, Irene
Goodnight
