Billy Williams – Goodnight, Irene lyrics
Irene, goodnight
Irene, goodnight
Goodnight, Irene
Goodnight, Irene
I'll see you in my dreams
Dreams, dreams, dreams

Last Saturday night
I got married
Now me and my wife
Settled down

Oh, oh, oh
Now me and my wife
We are parted
I'm gonna another stroll downtown
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)

I, Irene
A very good night
Nighty night to you
(Goodnight, baby)

I, Irene
I hope you sleep tight
(Take it easy, huh)

Goodnight, Irene
Goodnight, Irene
I'll see you in my dreams

Sometimes I live in the country
Sometimes I live in downtown
Hey, sometimes I have a great notion
To jump in the river and drown
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)

I, Irene
A very good night
Nighty night to you
(Sweet night, girl)

I, Irene
I hope you sleep tight
(Ah, you're something else)

Goodnight, Irene
Goodnight, Irene
I'll see you in my dreams

Stop rambling
Stop your gambling
Stop staying out late at night

Go on home to your
Wife and your family
Sit down by the fireside bright
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)

I, Irene
A very good night
Nighty night to you
(Oh, baby)

I, Irene
I hope you sleep tight
(You're killing me)

Goodnight, Irene
Goodnight, Irene
I'll see you in my dreams

Goodnight, Irene
Goodnight, Irene
I'll see you in my dreams
