Goodnight IreneLeadbelly

Score

Collin K. Wade

(Verses - same melody as chorus)Last Saturday night I got marriedMe and my wife settled downMe and my wife have partedGonna [ take another stroll down town.

Sometimes I live in the countrySometimes I live in townSometimes I have a great notionTo jump into the river and drown

Quit ramblin' and quit gamblin'Quit stayin' out late at nightStay home with your wife and familySit down by the fireside bright

I asked your mother for youShe told me you was too youngI wished to God I'd never seen your faceI's sorry you ever was born

I love Irene, God knows I doI'll love her till the seas run dryAnd if Irene turns her back on meI'd take morphine and die

You cause me to weep, you cause me to mournYou cause me to leave my homeBut the very last words I heard her sayWas "Please sing me one more song"

Chorus:
