Irene (124-B-1)

by Lead Belly

on Folkways: The Original Vision (2005)

[Verse 1]
She called me in the morn
[?]
That was [?]
I'm sorry you ever was known

[Chorus]
Irene, goodnight
Irene, goodnight
Goodnight, Irene
Goodnight, Irene
I'll get you in my dreams

[Verse 2]
I love Irene, God knows I do
Love her until 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'll get you in my dreams
