Come On Eileen

Come On Eileen - Dexys Midnight Runners

Come on Eileen

Come on Eileen

Poor old Johnny Ray sounded sad upon the radio

He moved a million hearts in mono

Our mothers cried

And sang along who'd blame them

You've 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

Come on Eileen I swear (well he means)

At this moment you mean everything

You in that dress 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 so resigned to what their fate is

But not us no not us we are far too young and clever

(Remember) Toora Loora Toora Loo Rye Aye

Eileen I'll hum this tune forever

Come on Eileen I swear well he means

Ah come on let's take off everything

Pretty red dress Eileen (Tell him yes)

Ah come on let's ah come on Eileen

Pretty red dress Eileen (Tell him yes)

Ah come on let's ah come on Eileen please

Come on Eileen taloo rye aye

Come on Eileen taloo rye aye

Now you have grown now you have shown

Oh Eileen(taloo rye aye)

Said Come on Eileen taloo rye aye (repeat in background)

You've grown So grown (Show how you feel)

Now I must say more than ever

Things 'round here have changed

I said too ra loo ra too ra loo rye aye

Come on Eileen I swear (well he means)

At this moment you mean everything

You in that dress my thoughts I confess

Verge on dirty

Ah come on Eileen

Come on Eileen I swear (well he means)

At this moment you mean everything

You in that dress my thoughts I confess

Well they're dirty

Come on Eileen
