Goodnight Irene The Irish Rovers

Irene goodnight, Irene goodnight
Goodnight Irene, Goodnight Irene
I´ll see you in my dreams

Last Saturday night I got married
Me and my wife settled down
Now me and my wife are parted
Gonna take a little stroll downtown

Irene goodnight, Irene goodnight
Goodnight Irene, Goodnight Irene
I´ll see you in my dreams

I asked your mother for your hand, she told me you were too young
I wished to the lord, have never seen your face
Or heard your lying tone!

Irene goodnight, Irene goodnight
Goodnight Irene, Goodnight Irene
I´ll see you in my dreams

I love Irene, God knows I do
Love her ´til the rivers run dry
And If irene turns her back on me
I know I'll surely die
