Dexys Midnight Runners - Come On Eileen (1982)


From the album Too-Rye-Ay in 1982



Poor old johnny ray
Sounded sad upon the radio
He moved a million hearts in mono
Our mothers used
To sing along, whod blame them
Youre grown (a grown up), so grown (so grown up), now I must say more than ever
(come on eileen)
Go 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 these moments, you mean everything
With 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
Theyre 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
Go toora loora toora loo rye aye
Eileen Ill hum this tune forever (x2)

Come on eileen oh I swear (what he means)
Ah come on, lets take off everything
That pretty red dress, oh eileen tell him yes
Ah come on lets, ah come on eileen
Come on eileen oh I swear (what he means)
At these moments you mean everything

Come on eileen too-loo rye-aye
Come on eileen too-loo rye-aye
Toora toora-too-loora

We are far too young and clever
And things wont ever change

Come on eileen, oh I swear (what he means)
At this moment, you mean everything to me

You mean everything
