The Brothers Four-Goodnight Irene




When I asked your mother for you

She told me you were too young

Now I wish I had never even seen your face

Or heard your lying tongue



So Saturday night I got married

Me and my wife settled down

Now me and my wife are parted

I'm gonna take another stroll downtown



Irene goodnight, Irene goodnight

Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene

I'll see you in my dream




Sometimes I live in the country

Sometimes I live in town

Sometimes I have a great notion

To jump into the river and drown



Oh, stop your carousin',

stop you gamblin'

Stayin out late at night

Go home to your wife and family

Sit down by the fireside, bright



Irene goodnight, Irene goodnight

Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene

I'll see yo
