Come on Eileen
Come on Eileen
Poor old Johnny Ray
Sounded sad upon the radio
He moved a million hearts in mono
Our mothers used
To sing along, who'd blame them
You're grown (a grown up),
so grown (so grown up), now I must say more than ever
(Come on Eileen)
Toora loora toora loo rye aye
And we can sing just like our fathers
Come on Eileen, oh I swear (well he means)
At this moment, you mean everything
You in that dress, oh my thoughts I confess
Verge on dirty
Ah come on Eileen
Come on Eileen
These people round here
Wear beaten down eyes
Sunk in smoke dried faces
Resigned to what their fate is
But not us (no never), no not us (no never)
We are far too young and clever
Remember
Toora loora toora loo rye aye
Eileen I'll hum this tune forever
Eileen I'll hum this tune forever
Come on Eileen oh I swear (well he means)
Ah come on, let's take off everything
That pretty red dress, oh Eileen tell him yes
Ah come on let's, Ah come on Eileen
Come on Eileen oh I swear (well he means)
At this moment you mean everything
Come on Eileen too-loo rye-aye
Come on Eileen too-loo rye-aye
Toora toora-too-loora
Oh, Eileen
Oh, Eileen
We are far too young and clever
and things wont ever change
I say toora loora toora loo rye aye
Come on Eileen, oh I swear (well he means)
At this moment, you mean everything to me
You mean everything
