Good night, Irene. Good night, Irene.

I'll see you in my dreams
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Have we sung enough folk songs to suit ya?
|
||
|
|
Of folk songs have we sung enough?
|
||
|

Civil Liberties are worth defending
|

Civil Liberties: that's why we're here

Chorus and singalong:
|

Sometimes we are fighting the Congress
|
||
|
|
Sometimes the local police
|
||
|
|
Sometimes we're fighting the censors
|
||
|
|
To protect our cherished beliefs
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Chorus and singalong:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Sometimes it's the First Amendment
|
||
|
|
Sometimes we're defending pot
|
||
|
|
Sometimes we defend the right of those
|
||
|
|
To sit on the pavement and rot
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Chorus and singalong:
|

Every good show has an ending
|
||
|
|
And this one was good, don't you think?
|
||
|
|
Now homeward our friends are wending
|
||
|
|
If they didn't have too much to drink.
