[Verse 1]
I asked your mother for you
She told me that you was too young
I wish dear Lord that I'd never seen your face
I'm sorry you ever were born
[Chorus]
Irene good night
Irene good night
Good night Irene, good night Irene
I guess you're in my dreams
[Verse 2]
Sometimes I live in the country
Sometimes I live in town
Sometimes I haves a great notion
Jumping in, into the river and drown
[Chorus]
Irene good night
Irene good night
Good night Irene, good night Irene
I guess you're in my dreams
[Verse 3]
Stop ramblin' and stop gamblin'
Quit staying out late at night
Go home to your wife and family
Stay there by the fireside bright
I asked your mother for you
She told me that you was too young
I wish dear Lord that I'd never seen your face
I'm sorry you ever were born
[Chorus]
Irene good night
Irene good night
Good night Irene, good night Irene
I guess you're in my dreams
[Verse 2]
Sometimes I live in the country
Sometimes I live in town
Sometimes I haves a great notion
Jumping in, into the river and drown
[Chorus]
Irene good night
Irene good night
Good night Irene, good night Irene
I guess you're in my dreams
[Verse 3]
Stop ramblin' and stop gamblin'
Quit staying out late at night
Go home to your wife and family
Stay there by the fireside bright
