Come on, Eileen |
|
Come on, Eileen |
|
Poor old Johnny Ray |
|
Sounded sad upon the radio |
|
Moved a million hearts in mono |
|
Made our mothers cry |
|
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-ay |
|
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-ay |
|
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, Eileen, too-loo-rye-ay |
|
Come on, Eileen, too-loo-rye-ay, toora-toora-too-loora) |
|
Now you are grown, and now you have shown, oh, Eileen |
|
(Come on, Eileen, too-loo-rye-ay |
|
Come on, Eileen, too-loo-rye-ay, toora-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, Eileen, too-loo-rye-ay |
|
Come on, Eileen, too-loo-rye-ay, toora-toora-too-loora) |
|
I said toora-loora-toora-loo-rye-ay |
|
(Come on, Eileen, too-loo-rye-ay |
|
Come on, Eileen, too-loo-rye-ay, toora-toora-too-loora) |
|
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, whoa-oh-oh (Well he means) |
|
Oh-ho-ho-ho (Everything) |
