Georgie On A Spree Lyrics

(Richard Thompson) Me mammy told me, Isabel, Now don't stay out too late One day they'll throw you out of school So get yourself a steady date But Georgie meets me every night We go out and we have a bite Eyes of blue, and money too, He's rattling the garden gate, And I can hardly wait- When Georgie's on a spree All the girls are jealous of me 'Cause I'm the one he spends his money on We spend it, one two three, Driving in his Chevrolet I'm perfect company He's the king and I'm his queen When Georgie's on a spree. We don't see bad company We mix it with the best Rubbing shoulders with the rich And no time for the rest When I see something that I need My Georgie buys the street for me And when we're tired of the Ritz He's got a little nest Where I put him to the test. When Georgie's on a spree All the girls are jealous of me 'Cause I'm the one he spends his money on We spend it, one two three, Driving in his Chevrolet I'm perfect company He's the king and I'm his queen When Georgie's on a spree. One day Georgie hung his head And sadly he did say- Little girl, I'm leaving you I have to go away; But I'll be back in a week or two, And I'll be thinking just of you Sit beside your telephone Until that lucky day When I come home to stay- When Georgie's on a spree All the girls are jealous of me 'Cause I'm the one he spends his money on We spend it, one two three, Driving in his Chevrolet I'm perfect company He's the king and I'm his queen When Georgie's on a spree He's the king and I'm his queen When Georgie's on a spree.
