Dexys Midnight Runners cover
Poor old Johnny Ray
Sounded sad upon the radio
Moved a million hearts in mono
Our mothers cried
Sang along, whod blame them
Now youre grown, so grown, now I must say more than ever
Go toora loora toora loo rye aye
And we can sing just like our fathers
Come on Eileen, oh 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
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
Come on Eileen oh I swear what he means
Ah come on, lets take off everything
That pretty red dress Eileen tell him yes
Ah come on lets, Ah come on Eileen
That pretty red dress, Eileen tell him yes
Ah come on lets, ah come on Eileen
Please…
Come on Eileen too-loo rye-aye
Come on Eileen too-loo rye-aye
Toora toora-too-loora
Now you have grown, now you have shown, oh Eileen
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
Too-ra loo-ra too-ra loo-rye-aye
