Wake Up Irene - Hank Thompson[00:00:00]
Written by:Kincaid/Allard/hathcock[00:00:01]
For months and months and months around the country[00:00:05]
Everybody sang Irene goodnight[00:00:10]
But she wouldn't go to bed no matter what they said[00:00:14]
Though everybody tried with all their might[00:00:18]
She stayed awake while steel guitars were a going[00:00:22]
In every honky tonk she could be seen[00:00:27]
But she finally went to bed and covered up her head[00:00:31]
And now theres not a thing can wake Irene[00:00:35]
Wake up Irene you've sleep too long[00:00:40]
Wake up Irene it's time to move along[00:00:44]
Wake up Irene and pay for your bed[00:00:48]
Wake up Irene or folks will think you're dead[00:00:52]
Lots of guitar pickers by the dozen[00:01:15]
Sang 'Goodnight Irene' all night and day[00:01:19]
And even crosby too with his bo bo bo bo be do[00:01:23]
Tried to get Irene to hit the hay[00:01:27]
Well I guess they finally sang her off to slumber[00:01:31]
They must have tried a million times or more[00:01:35]
But oh my aching back[00:01:40]
When she finally hit the sack[00:01:42]
Man[00:01:44]
You ought to hear that women snore[00:01:44]
Wake up Irene you've sleep too long[00:01:48]
Wake up Irene it's time to move along[00:01:52]
Wake up Irene and pay for your bed[00:01:57]
Wake up Irene or folks will think you're dead[00:02:01]
