Come On Eileen

Come on Eileen

Come on Eileen



Poor old Johnny Ray

Sounded sad upon the radio

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, come on Eileen

Toora loora toora loo rye ay

And we can sing just like our fathers



Come on Eileen, oh I swear what he means

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

So 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 ay

Eileen, I'll hum this tune forever



Come on Eileen, oh I swear what he means

Ah come on let's, take off everything

Pretty red dress, Eileen tell him yes

Ah come on let's, ah come on Eileen



That pretty red dress, Eileen tell him yes

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



Come on Eileen, too loo rye ay

Come on Eileen, too loo rye ay

(Now you have grown, now you have shown)

Toora toora, too loora

(Oh Eileen)



(Said come on)

Come on Eileen, too loo rye ay

(These things that are real so, how you feel)

Come on Eileen, too loo rye ay

(Now I must say more than ever)

Toora toora, too loora

(Things round here change)

(I said toora loora)

Come on Eileen, too loo rye ay

(Toora loo rye ay)

Come on Eileen, too loo rye ay

Toora toora, too loora



Come on Eileen, oh I swear what he means

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, oh I swear what he means

At this moment, you mean everything

In that dress oh my thoughts I confess

Well they're dirty, on Eileen



Come on Eileen, whoa what he means

Oh, ah come on, everything



{Oh believe me if all those endearing young chums

That I gaze on so firmly today

Were to suddenly leave you, oh fly in the night

Just like fairy gifts gone in the sky}
