Eric Clapton - Goodnight irene - commentary lyrics

At Saturday night I got married Me and my wife settled down But me and my wife have parted I'm gonna take another stroll downtown Irene goodnight (goodnight Irene) Irene goodnight Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene I'll get you in my dream Stop your ramblin' Stop your gamblin' Stop stayin' out late, late at night Go home to your wife and your family Sit down by your fireside so bright Irene goodnight Irene goodnight Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene I'll get you in my dream I love Irene and got new I do Still the sea runs dry And if Irene ever turns her back on me I'm gonna take morphine and die Irene goodnight, Irene goodnight Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene I'll get you in my dream Irene goodnight, Irene goodnight Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene I'll get you in my dream Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene I'll get you in my dream
