The page contains the lyrics of the song "Goodnight Irene" by Pete Seeger.

Lyrics

Irene, goodnight,
Irene, goodnight,
Goodnight, Irene,
Goodnight, Irene,
I’ll see you in my dreams.
Last Saturday night I got married,
Me and my wife settle down,
Now me and my wife are parted,
I’m gonna take another stroll in town.
Sometimes I live in the country,
Sometimes I live in town,
Sometimes I have a great notion,
To jump in the river and drown.
