Mississippi John Hurt - Goodnight Irene lyrics

Irene, goodnight Irene, goodnight Goodnight, Irene, goodnight, Irene I will see you in my dreams Sometimes I live in the country Sometimes I live in town Sometimes I take a great notion To jump into the river and drown Irene, goodnight Irene, goodnight Goodnight, Irene, goodnight, Irene I will see you in my dreams Stop rambling, stop gambling Stop staying out late at night Go home to your wife and your family And stay by the fireside bright Irene, goodnight Irene, goodnight Goodnight, Irene, goodnight, Irene I will see you in my dreams
