Irene goodnight

[D]Last Saturday night I got [A]married,
[A7]me and my wife settled [D]down.
But [D7]me and my wife have [G]parted,
I'm gonna [A7]take another stroll down [D]town.

   [D]Irene, good[A]night, [A7]Irene good[D]night.
   Good[D7]night Irene, good[G]night Irene,
   I'll [A7]see you in my [D]dreams.

Stop your ramblin', stop your gamblin',
stop staying out late at night.
Go home to your wife and your family,
and sit down by the fireside bright.

Sometimes I live in the country,
sometimes I live in a town.
And if my wife should ever leave me,
I'm gonna jump in a river and drown
