Jim Reeves

James Travis "Jim" Reeves (August 20, 1923 – July 31, 1964) was an American country and popular music singer-songwriter. With records charting from the 1950s to the 1980s, he became well known as a practitioner of the Nashville sound (a mixture of older country-style music with elements of popular music). Known as "Gentleman Jim", his songs continued to chart for years after his death. Reeves died at age 40 in the crash of a private airplane. He is a member of both the Country Music and Texas Country Music Halls of Fame. more »

Irene goodnight Irene goodnight
Goodnight Irene goodnight Irene I'll see you in my dreams

Last Saturday night I got married me and my wife settled down
Now me and my wife have parted so I'll take another stroll downtown
Irene goodnight Irene...

Sometimes I live in the country sometimes I live in town
Sometimes I take a great notion to jump in the river and drown
Irene goodnight Irene...
