Last Saturday night, I got married,    me and my wife settled down    Now me and my wife are parted,    I'm gonna take another stroll downtown       Sometimes I live in the country,    sometimes I live in town    Sometimes I take a great notion,    to jump into the river and drown       I love Irene, God knows I do,    I'll love her till the seas run dry    But if Irene should turn me down,    I'd take the morphine and die       Stop rambling , stop your gambling,    stop staying out late at night    Go home to your wife and your family,    stay there by your fireside bright.
