Homer & Jethro – MODIFIED LYRICS

{ CHORUS }  Ilene good night Ilene
Ilene my sweet
Be sure and trim your toe nails
Or you will rip the sheets 
 
[Verse]  Last Saturday night I got married
For better or worse I suppose
When I slipped the ring on her finger
She slipped one through my nose
 
{ CHORUS }  Ilene good night Ilene
Ilene good night
Ilene good night, Ilene sleep tight
Don't let the bed bugs bite
   
[Verse]  She blackened my left eye this morning
She broke my nose last night
I'd better leave her while I'm able
Cause I'd rather switch than fight
 
{ CHORUS }  Ilene good night Ilene
Ilene good night
She always drinks a six pack
And that makes her sleep tight
  
[Verse]  I feel like a million dollars
Never felt this way before
I lost two hundred pounds of ugly fat
When she walked right out the door
  
{ CHORUS }  Ilene Good night Ilene
Ilene Good night
And if I have a nightmare
I'll see you in my dreams
