Eileen Lyrics by Keith Richards

Main Offender

1992

Eileen, won't you lean on me?
This is no life living here without you
This is no way for me to get along yeah
Now that I know I'm no good without you
Eileen, Eileen

Eileen, won't you lean on me, please?
How much I had baby when I had you?
I'm destitute this way yeah
I'm doing time living here without you
Eileen (Eileen, Eileen) Eileen

Eileen, I'm coming clean yeah
I guess no substitute will do yeah
What do I do, baby, to impress you?
Now that I'm blown and thrown out the way, oooh ..

Eileen, ooh yeah (Eileen)

Eileen, you can lean on me
Baby I'm dead in a cruel world without you, yeah
Eileen, lean on me, lean on me
Eileen baby won't you lean on me?

Lean on me, lean on me ...
