Poor old johnny ray
said it sounded sad upon the radio
and it
moved a million hearts in mono
our mothers used
to sing 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 aye
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 oh 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
they're 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 aye
eileen i'll live on this tune forever
toora loora toora loo rye aye
all live on this toon forever
Come on eileen oh i swear what he means
ah come on let's, take off everything
that pretty red dress oh i'll do (tell him yes)
ah come on let's, ah come on eileen
comeo on eileen, i saw what he means
Like this moment, you mean everthing
come on eileen too-loo rye-aye
come on eileen too-loo rye-aye
toora toora-too-loora oh ooh eileen
come on eileen
Things won't ever change
i said toora loora rye aye
comone on eileen oh i swear what he means
you mean everything
whooo eileen
you mean everything….
