Come on Eileen

Come on, EileenCome on, Eileen
Poor old Johnnie RaySounded sad upon the radioMoved a million hearts in monoOur mothers criedSang along, who'd blame them?
You've grown (you're grown up)So grown (so grown up)Now I must say more than ever(Come on, Eileen)Too-ra-loo-raToo-ra-loo-rye-ayAnd we can sing just like our fathers
Come on, EileenOh, I swear (what he means)At this momentYou mean everythingYou in that dressMy thoughts, I confessVerge on dirtyAh, come on, Eileen
Come on, Eileen
These people 'round hereWere beaten down, eyes sunk in smoke-dried faceThey're so resigned to what their fate isBut not us (no never)But not us (not ever)We are far too young and clever(Remember)Too-ra-loo-raToo-ra-loo-rye-ayAnd you'll hum this tune forever
Come on, EileenOh, I swear (what he means)Ah, come on, let'sTake off everythingThat pretty red dressEileen (tell him yes)Ah, come on, let'sAh, come on, Eileen, pleaseThat pretty red dressEileen (tell him yes)Ah, come on, let'sAh, come on, Eileen, please
Now you're full grown (too-ra)And now you have shown (too-ra, ta-loo-ra)Oh, EileenSaid, come on, Eileen (come on, Eileen) (you've grown)These things they are real and I know (ta-loo-rye-ay) (so grown)How you feel (come on, Eileen, ta-loo-rye-ay)Now I must say more than ever (too-ra, ta-loo-ra)Things 'round here have changedI said, too-ra-loo-ra (come on, Eileen, ta-loo-rye-ay)Too-ra-loo-rye-ay (come on, Eileen, ta-loo-rye-ay)(Too-ra, ta-loo-ra)
Come on, EileenOh, I swear (what he means)At this momentYou mean everythingYou in that dressMy thoughts, I confessVerge on dirtyAh, come on, EileenCome on, EileenOh, I swear (what he means)At this momentYou mean everythingIn that dressOh, my thoughts I confessWell, they're dirtyCome on, EileenCome on, EileenWhoa (what he means)WhoaAh, come on, Eileen
Oh, believe meIf all those endearing young chumsThat I gaze on so fondly todayWere to suddenly leave you, oh fly in the nightJust like fairy gifts gone in the sky
