Goodnight Irene song lyrics 
Top songs from early music charts 1930-1950 downloaded from www.traditionalmusic.co.uk 
Goodnight, Irene Gordon Jenkins & his orchestra & The Weavers 
(chorus) 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 settle down,, Now me and my wife are parted, I'm gonna take another stroll in town. 
(repeat chorus) 
Sometimes I live in the country, Sometimes I live in town, Sometimes I have a great notion, To jump in the river and drown. 
(end song with chorus repeat)
