Come on Eileen

Come on Eileen

Come on Eileen

Poor old Johnny Ray

Sounded sad upon the radio

Broke a billion hearts in mono

Our mothers cried

Sang along, who'd blame them?

You've grown (you're grown up)

So grown (so grown up)

Now I must say more than ever

Come on Eileen

Too-ra, loo-ra, too-ra, loo rye aye

We can sing just like our fathers

Come on Eileen, oh I swear (what he means)

At this moment, you mean everything

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

They're resigned to what their fate is

But not us (no never)

No, not us (no never)

We are far too young and clever

Come on Eileen

Too-ra, loo-ra, too-ra, loo rye aye

And you'll hum this tune forever

Come on Eileen, oh I swear (what 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

That pretty red dress, oh Eileen (tell him yes)

Ah come on let's, ah come on Eileen, please

Come on, Eileen too rye aye

Come on Eileen too rye aye

Now you're full grown

Now you have shown

Oh, oh Eileen

Said, come on Eileen

These things they are real and I know

How you feel

Now I must say more than ever

These things will never change

I say, too-ra, loo-ra, too-ra, loo rye aye

Come on Eileen

Oh, I swear (what he means)

At this moment, you mean everything

You in that dress, my thoughts I confess

Verge on dirty

Ah, come on Eileen

Come on Eileen

Oh, I swear (what 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

Oh, I swear (what he means)

At this moment, you mean everything

You in that dress, my thoughts I confess

Verge on dirty

Ah, come on Eileen
