Lyrics
Just like a leaf
I float down a stream
If I can't see you now
Well, I'll see you in my dreams
Irene don't go back to the rodeo
Irene don't go back on the road
Sleeping all day
Under a sad willow tree
If you're not by my side
It's not as sad as me
Irene don't go back to the rodeo
Irene don't go back on the road
Everybody's searching
For fortune and fame
If you can't find love
It's no longer a game
Irene don't go back to the rodeo
Irene don't go back on the road
(repeat)
