Eric Bibb - Goodnight Irene lyrics
[Eric Bibb - Goodnight Irene lyrics]
She told me that you was too young
I wished to the Lord I'd never seen your face
See what you done done
Irene goodnight irene goodnight
Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene
I'll get you in my dream
Sometimes I live in the country
Sometimes I live in the town
Sometimes I have a great notion
To jump in the river and drown
Irene goodnight irene goodnight
Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irenе
I'll get you in my dream
I love Irеne, God knows I do
I love her till the seas run dry
If Irene turns her back on me
Gonna take morphine and die
Stop ramblin', stop your gamblin'
Stop stayin' out late at night
Go home to your wife and family
Sit down by the fireside bright
Irene goodnight irene goodnight
Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene
I'll get you in my dreams
