Come on, Eileen
Poor old Johnny Ray
Sounded sad upon the radio
Moved a million hearts in mono
Our mothers cried
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-aye
And we can sing just like our fathers
Come on, Eileen
Oh, I swear (well, he means)
At this moment
You mean everything (everything)
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 face
They're 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 hum this tune forever
