I asked your mother for you |
| [00:14.09] |
She told me that you was too young |
| [00:18.75] |
I wish to the Lord I'd never seen your face |
| [00:23.61] |
or heard your lying tongue |
| [00:28.06] |
|
| [00:28.77] |
Irene goodnight, Irene goodnight |
| [00:37.63] |
Goodnight Irene, Goodnight Irene |
| [00:42.38] |
I'll see you in my dreams |
| [00:46.64] |

Sometimes I live in the country |
| [00:51.80] |
Sometimes I live in the town |
| [00:56.71] |
Sometimes I have a great notion |
| [01:01.47] |
to jump into the river and drown |
| [01:06.27] |
|
| [01:06.62] |
Irene goodnight, Irene goodnight |
| [01:15.49] |
Goodnight Irene, Goodnight Irene |
| [01:20.10] |
I'll see you in my dreams |
| [01:25.63] |
|
| [02:03.05] |
I love Irene God knows I do |
| [02:07.81] |
love her till the sea run dry |
| [02:12.61] |
And if Irene turns her back on me |
| [02:16.86] |
I'm gonna take morphine and die |
| [02:21.43] |
|
| [02:22.43] |
Irene goodnight, Irene goodnight |
| [02:31.30] |
Goodnight Irene, Goodnight Irene |
| [02:36.09] |
I'll see you in my dreams |
| [02:40.84] |
Goodnight Irene, Goodnight Irene |
| [02:45.52] |
I'll see you in my dreams |
| [02:50.92] |
