[02:26.86][01:10.82][00:01.56] The Brothers Four-Goodnight Irene
[00:16.80][00:00.91]
[00:17.34] When I asked your mother for you
[00:21.45] She told me you were too young
[00:25.17] Now I wish I had never even seen your face
[00:29.77] Or heard your lying tongue
[00:33.46]
[00:34.00] So Saturday night I got married
[00:38.65] Me and my wife settled down
[00:42.46] Now me and my wife are parted
[00:46.75] I'm gonna take another stroll downtown
[00:50.85]
[00:52.53] Irene goodnight, Irene goodnight
[00:59.99] Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene
[01:04.46] I'll see you in my dream
[01:17.00][01:10.07]
[01:17.25] Sometimes I live in the country
[01:21.24] Sometimes I live in town
[01:26.61] Sometimes I have a great notion
[01:29.79] To jump into the river and drown
[01:34.52]
[01:34.67] Oh, stop your carousin',
[01:36.92] stop you gamblin'
[01:38.90] Stayin out late at night
[01:43.49] Go home to your wife and family
[01:47.52] Sit down by the fireside, bright
[01:51.64]
[01:53.46] Irene goodnight, Irene goodnight
[02:01.27] Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene
[02:05.54] I'll see you in my dream
[02:09.39]
[02:09.96] Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene
[02:14.42] I'll see you in my dreams...
[02:20.44]
