Good Night, Irene Lyrics

Last 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 Sometimes I live in the country, sometimes I live in town Sometimes I take a great notion, to jump into the river and drown I love Irene, God knows I do, I'll love her till the seas run dry But if Irene should turn me down, I'd take the morphine and die Stop rambling , stop your gambling, stop staying out late at night Go home to your wife and your family, stay there by your fireside bright.
