Saturday night, I got married Me and my wife settled down Now me and my wife are parting Going to take another walk downtown Goodnight Irene, goodnight Goodnight Irene, goodnight Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene I'll see you in my dreams Sometimes I live in the country Sometimes I live in town Sometimes I take a few notions I want to jump overboard in a river and drown Goodnight Irene, goodnight Goodnight Irene, goodnight Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene I'll see you in my dreams Stop rambling, stop your gambling Stop staying out late every night Stay home with your wife and children Stay by the fireside light Goodnight Irene, goodnight Goodnight Irene, goodnight Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene I'll see you in my dreams
