Good night ladies — Lyrics
Good night, ladies! Good night, ladies!
Good night, ladies! We’re going to leave you now.
Merrily we roll along, roll along, roll along,
Merrily we roll along over the dark blue sea.
Farewell, ladies! Farewell, ladies!
Farewell, ladies, we're going to leave you now.

About Good night ladies
This familiar American folk song is perfect for a relaxed social gathering or a farewell. Arranged for TTBB voices, its simple, repeating melody and straightforward lyrics evoke a sense of camaraderie. The text, sung in English, expresses a gentle parting and wishes sweet dreams, making it a warm and easy-to-learn number. Its origins in the barbershop tradition suggest a close-harmony, a cappella setting, ideal for informal performances where a lighthearted and nostalgic mood is desired. The arrangement allows for a blend of warmth and clarity, bringing this classic tune to life.
