[Verse 1]
And she caused me to moan
She caused me to leave my home
Last words that I heared her say
"I'm sorry you ever was known"
[Chorus]
Irene, goodnight
Irene, goodnight
Goodnight, Irene, goodnight, Irene
I guess you're in my dreams
[Verse 2]
I love Irene, God knows I do
Love her 'til the sea run dry
If Irene turns her back on me
I'm gonna take morphine and die
[Chorus]
Irene, goodnight
Irene, goodnight
Goodnight, Irene, goodnight, Irene
I guess you're in my dreams
