Come on Eileen

Come on Eileen

Poor old Johnny Ray

sounded sad

upon the radio

he moved a million

hearts in mono

Our mothers cried

sang along

who'd blame them

You're grown

so grown

now I must say

more than ever

Too-ra-loo-ra

too-ra-loo-rye-aye

and we can sing

just like our fathers...

Come on Eileen

Oh, I swear

at this moment

you mean everything

With you in that dress

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 not us

we are far too

young and clever

Too-ra-loo-ra

too-ra-loo-rye-aye

Eileen, I'll hum

this tune forever...

Come on Eileen

Oh, I swear

ah, come on, let's

take off everything

That pretty red dress

Eileen

ah, come on, let's

ah, come on, Eileen

That pretty red dress

Eileen

ah, come on, let's

ah, come on, Eileen

please

Now you are grown

now you have shown

Oh, Eileen

said come on Eileen

show how you feel

Now I must say

more than ever

things 'round here'll change

I said too-ra-loo-ra

too-ra-loo-rye-aye

Come on Eileen

Oh, I swear

at this moment

you mean everything

With you in that dress

my thoughts I confess

verge on dirty

ah, come on Eileen

Oh, come on Eileen

Woah, I swear

at this moment

you mean everything

In that dress

Oh, my thoughts

well, they're dirty

come on Eileen
