Lyrics
[Chorus: Both, Red Foley, & Ernest Tubb] Irene goodnight Irene goodnight Goodnight Irene Goodnight Irene I'll see you in my dreams [Verse 1: Red Foley] Last Saturday night I got married Me and my wife settled down Now me and my wife are parted Gonna take another stroll down town [Chorus: Both, Red Foley, & Ernest Tubb] Irene goodnight Irene goodnight Goodnight Irene Goodnight Irene I’ll see you in my dreams [Verse 2: Ernest Tubb] Sometimes I live in the country Sometimes I live in the town Sometimes I take a fool notion To jump in the river and drown [Chorus: Both, Red Foley, & Ernest Tubb] Irene goodnight Irene goodnight Goodnight Irene Goodnight Irene I'll see you in my dreams [Verse 3: Ernest Tubb & Red Foley] Stop rambling, stop your gambling Stop staying out late at night Go home to your wife and family And stay by the fire side bright [Chorus: Both, Red Foley, & Ernest Tubb] Irene goodnight Irene goodnight Goodnight Irene Goodnight Irene I'll see you in my dreams [Outro: Both] I’ll see you in my dreams
