Come On Eileen

[Intro]

One, two, three, four

Come on, Eileen

[Verse 1]

Poor old Johnnie Ray

Sounded sad upon the radio

Moved a million hearts in mono

Our mothers cried

Sang along, who'd blame them?

You've grown (So 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, ay

And we can sing just like our fathers

[Chorus]

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

Oh, come on, Eileen

[Post-Chorus]

Come on, Eileen

[Verse 2]

These people round here

Were beaten down, eyes sunk in smoke-dried face

They're resigned to what their fate is

But not us (No, never)

But not us (No, ever)

We are far too young and clever (Remember)

Too-ra-loo-ra, too-ra-loo-rye, ay

I'm gonna hum this tune forever, oh

[Chorus]

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

Oh, come on, Eileen

[Bridge]

Come on, Eileen, tah-loo-rye-ay

Come on, Eileen, tah-loo-rye-ay

Now you have grown (Too-ra, too-ra, tah-loo-ra)

Now you have shown

Oh, Eileen, and I say

Come on, Eileen (Come on)

These things they are real and I know (Eileen, tah-loo-rye-ay)

How you feel (Come on, Eileen, tah-loo-rye-ay)

Now I must say more than ever (Too-ra, too-ra, too-loo-ra)

Things round here have changed

And I say

Too-ra-loo-ra (Come on, Eileen, tah-loo-rye-ay)

Too-ra-loo-rye, ay (Come on, Eileen, tah-loo-rye-ay)

[Chorus]

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

Oh, 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

Oh, come on, Eileen

[Outro]

Come on, Eileen, ah

You mean everything

Come on, Eileen, ah

Oh, come on, Eileen (So come on, Eileen)
