Irene Lead Belly Irene, good night, Irene, good night God night, Irene, good night, Irene I'll kiss you in my dreams Sometimes I live in the country Sometimes I lve in town Sometimes I have a great notion To jump in the river and drown Last Saturday night I got marrioed Me and my wife settled down Now me and my wife have parted Gonna take me a stroll uptown I love Irene; God knows I do I love her till the sea runs dry And if Irene turns back on me I'll take morphine and die Quit your ramblin', quit your you gamblin' Quit your stayin' out late at night Go home to your wife and family Sit down by the fireside bright ![]() |
