Irene good night
Irene good night
Good night, Irene, good night Irene
I'll get you in my dream.

Chorus from an old C&W song by Lead Belly. Made a bit more famous by some guy called Eric Clapton.

You really must stop kick-starting my memory banks. It has me searching YouTube for old songs. And so it goes on..... Memories of the days of my youth.

Anyway, here is Eric Clapton's rendition: https://youtu.be/CZm96PKwtHc

Reminds me of another song I used to sing.......

'We got married on Friday
The vicar said it was my day
and when they were gone
We were alone
Side by side.

We got ready for bed then,
I very nearly dropped dead when,
her false teeth and hair
she laid on a chair
Side by side.

Then to my amazement
her little glass eye so small,
her arm, her leg
she placed them
on the chair and the table
by the wall.

Well, my baby and me, we are parted
and we'ed only just started.
Now I sleep on the chair
'cos there's more of her there,
Side by side.

Usually sung blotto voce and with 6 pints down.
(In)Glorious days.

A good blast from the past! I thought the last verse started

There I lay broken-hearted,
Most of my wife had departed ...

As I've said 'blotto voce'.

But what about the photo. I think that's a very decent sunset.

I agree.
Got sidetracked.
