Subject: RE: lyrics for Goodnight Irene
Re: Bill D.'s verse:

"Sometimes Irene wears pyjamas Sometimes, she wears a gown But when they're both in the laundry, Irene is the talk of the town"

The Southland Quartet from Augusta, Ga. sings this verse:

Sometimes she weareth Pajamas Sometimes she weareth a Gown Sometimes she puts 'em in the laundry That's when we goes to town.
