(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 (you're 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 With you in that dress, my thoughts, I confess Verge on dirty Ah come on Eileen (Come on Eileen) These people round here Were 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) Go Toora-loora-toora-loo-rye-aye 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, 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, Ei-leen too-loo rye-aye; Come on, Ei-leen too-loo rye-aye; too-ra toora too-loora) Now you have grown, now you have shown, oh Eileen (Come on, Ei-leen too-loo rye-aye; Come on, Ei-leen too-loo rye-aye; too-ra toora too-loora) You're grown... (Said, come on Eileen, these things they are real...) So grown... (...and I know how you feel) Now I must say more than ever Things 'round here will change (Come on, Ei-leen too-loo rye-aye; Come on, Ei-leen too-loo rye-aye; too-ra toora too-loora) I said Too-ra loo-ra too-ra loo-rye-aye Come on Eileen, oh I swear (well 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 (well he means) At this moment, you mean everything (in that dress), whoa my thoughts, I confess Well, they're dirty Come on Eileen Come on Eileen, ooh-hooh-hooh (well he means) Oh-ho-ho-ho, ah come on, ah come on... (everything) |
