Lyrics of Goodnight irene

Goodnight irene, goodnight
Goodnight irene, goodnight
Goodnight irene, goodnight irene
I'll see you in my dreams

Sometimes i live in the country
Sometimes i live in town
Sometimes i take a few notions
I want to jump overboard in a river and drown

(chorus)

One night i got married
Now me and my wife settled down
Now me and my wife are parting
I want to jump overboard in a river and drown

(chorus)
