| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | GOODNIGHT IRENE | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 64 | | | | Lyrics: | (Huddie LedbetterJohn Lomax)
(E) - (E7) - (A) - (B7)
(E) I asked your mother for (B7)
you
She told me that you was too (E) young
I wish dear (E7) Lord never have (A) seen your
face
And I'm (B7) sorry that you ever been (E) born.
(E) Irene good (B7) night, Irene
good (E) night
Goodnight I (E7) rene, good (A) night Irene
I'll (B7) get you in my (E)
dreams
Sometimes I lives in the country
Sometimes I lives in town
Sometimes I
have a great notion
To jump into the river and drown
I loves Irene, God knows I do
Loves her till the sea runs dry
If Irene turns her back on me
I'm gonna take morphine
and die
Stop ramblin' and stop gamblin'
Quit staying out late at night
Come home
into your wife and your family
Sit down by the fireside bright
Irene goodnight, Irene
goodnight
Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene
I'll get you in my dreams | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
