Georgie On A Spree - 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
