"Irene Goodnight" (F)
After finish: note that the songs says to "stop rambling, stop gambling, stop staying out late at night." This song was written by Hudie Ledbetter, better known as Leadbelly, and he was pretty much your ultimate rambling, gambling, stay out late fellow - in prison several times, but was sometimes able to sing his way out (I.e. sang for governor, governor pardoned him)
Irene, good night, Irene, good night
Good night, Irene, good night, Irene
I'll get you in my dreams
Sometimes I live in the country
Sometimes I live in town
Sometimes I have a great notion
To jump in to the river and drown
Irene, good night, Irene, good night
Good night, Irene, good night, Irene
I'll get you in my dreams
Stop rambling and stop gambling
Quit staying out late at night
Go home to your wife and your family
Sit down by a fireside bright
Irene, good night, Irene, good night
Good night, Irene, good night, Irene
Songwriters: Huddie Ledbetter / John A. Lomax
