Come on, Eileen.
Come on, Eileen.

Poor old Johnny Ray
sounded sad upon the radio,
moved a million hearts in mono.
Our mothers cried, sang along and who would blame them?
You've grown, so grown, now I must say more than ever, (come on, Eileen)
too-ra-loo-ra, too-ra-loo-rye-aye,
and we can sing just like our fathers.

Come on, Eileen, well, I swear, (what 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 wear beaten down eyes,
sunk in, smoke dried faces.
They're so resigned to what their fate is,
but not us, no, not us.
We are far too young and clever.

Remember,
too-ra-loo-ra, too-ra-loo-rye-aye,
and you'll hum this tune forever.

Come on, Eileen.
Oh, I swear. (what 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.

Come on, Eileen, too-loo-rye-aye.
Come on, Eileen, too-loo-rye-aye.
Now you're full grown,
now you have shown,
oh, Eileen.

Say, come on, Eileen.
These things they are real and I know
how you feel.
Now I must say, more than ever,
things round here have changed.
I say, too-ra-loo-ra, too-ra-loo-rye-aye.

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.
Ah, come on, Eileen.

Ah, come on, Eileen.
Oh, I swear, (what he means)
At this moment you mean everything.
You, in that dress, my thoughts I confess,
well, they're dirty.
Come on, Eileen.


(I did the best I could with the lyrics. They are fairly accurate -wr)

The following disclaimer appears on the lyric sheet:

The words here vary slightly from the ones you'll hear on the album.
We have intentionally presented them this way to make them easier to read.
