"Come On Eileen" lyrics - SARA EVANS

[Intro:]
One, two, three, four
Come on, Eileen

Poor old Johnnie Ray
Sounded sad upon the radio
Moved a million hearts in mono
Our mothers cried
Sang along, who'd blame them?
You've grown (So grown up)
So grown (So grown up)
Now I must say more than ever (Come on, Eileen)
Too-ra-loo-ra, too-ra-loo-rye, ay
And we can sing just like our fathers

[Chorus:]
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
Oh, come on, Eileen

[Post-Chorus:]
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)
But not us (No, ever)
We are far too young and clever (Remember)
Too-ra-loo-ra, too-ra-loo-rye, ay
I'm gonna hum this tune forever, oh

[Chorus:]
Come on, Eileen
Oh, I swear (What he means)
Ah, come on, let's take off everything
Pretty red dress
Eileen (Tell him yes)
Ah, come on, let's
Oh, come on, Eileen

[Bridge:]
Come on, Eileen, tah-loo-rye-ay
Come on, Eileen, tah-loo-rye-ay
Now you have grown (Too-ra, too-ra, tah-loo-ra)
Now you have shown
Oh, Eileen, and I say
Come on, Eileen (Come on)
These things they are real and I know (Eileen, tah-loo-rye-ay)
How you feel (Come on, Eileen, tah-loo-rye-ay)
Now I must say more than ever (Too-ra, too-ra, too-loo-ra)
Things round here have changed
And I say
Too-ra-loo-ra (Come on, Eileen, tah-loo-rye-ay)
Too-ra-loo-rye, ay (Come on, Eileen, tah-loo-rye-ay)

[Chorus:]
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
Oh, come on, Eileen
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
Oh, come on, Eileen

[Outro:]
Come on, Eileen, ah
You mean everything
Come on, Eileen, ah
Oh, come on, Eileen (So come on, Eileen)
