Lyrics:

Poor old Johnny Ray
Sounded sad upon the radio
he moved a million hearts in mono.
Our mothers cried and sang along 
and who'd blame them.
Now you're 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, 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 
they're so resigned to what their fate is
But not us, no not us 
we are far too young and clever.
Remember Toora Loora Toora Loo-Rye-Aye
Eileen I'll hum this tune forever.

Come on Eileen, 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, please.
