Last Saturday night I got married

Me and my wife settle down

Now me and my wife are parted

I'm thing taking another stroll down town

Irene 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 great notion

To jump in to the river and drown

Irene goodnight

Irene goodnight

Goodnight Irene

Goodnight Irene

I'll see you in my dreams

She caused me to weep

She caused me to mourn

She caused me to leave my home

But the very last words I heard her say

Was please sing me one more song

Irene goodnight

Irene goodnight

Goodnight Irene

Goodnight Irene

I'll see you in my one more time

Irene goodnight

Irene goodnight

Goodnight Irene

Goodnight Irene

I'll see you in my dreams
