Lyrics for Song: Come On Eileen
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Badly Drawn Boy
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 and sang along
Who could blame them?
Now you're grown, so grown
Now I must say more than ever
Toora Loora Toora Loo-Rye Aye
And we can sing just like our fathers
Come on Eileen, oh, I swear what I mean
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, so resigned to what their fate is
But not us (no never) 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
Come on Eileen, oh, I swear what I mean
Ah. come on let's, take off everything
Pretty red dress, Eileen yell me yes
Ah, come on let's, ah, come on Eileen
That pretty red dress, Eileen yell me yes
Ah, come on let's, ah, come on Eileen, please
Come on Eileen, Taloo-Rye-Aye
Come on Eileen, Taloo-Rye-Aye
Now you have grown, now you have shown, oh, Eileen
Come on Eileen, these things that are real
And I know how you feel
Now I must say its's not the day for regrets, Eileen, please
Oh, come on Eileen, this dress that you wear is all wrong
It makes me feel that now you have grown, you have shown
Oh, Eileen
Oh, come on Eileen, oh, I swear what I mean
Oh, come on let's, oh, come on Eileen
That dress that you wear, oh, matches your hair
At this moment, that means everything
Oh, come on Eileen, oh, I swear
Ah, come on let's, take off everything
Come on Eileen, oh, I swear what I mean....
