---Lyrics---
In these days of changing ways
so called liberated days
a story comes to mind of a friend of mine

Georgie boy was gay I guess
nothin' more or nothin' less
the kindest guy I ever knew

His mother's tears fell in vain
the afternoon George tried to explain
that he needed love like all the rest

Pa said there must be a mistake
how can my son not be straight
after all I've said and done for him

Leavin' home on a Greyhound bus
cast out by the ones he loves
A victim of these gay days it seems

Georgie went to New York town
where he quickly settled down
and soon became the toast of the great white way

Accepted by Manhattan's elite
in all the places that were chic
No party was complete without George

Along the boulevards he'd cruise
and all the old queens blew a fuse
Everybody loved Georgie boy

The last time I saw George alive
was in the summer of seventy-five
he said he was in love I said I'm pleased

George attended the opening night
of another Broadway hype
but split before the final curtain fell

Deciding to take a short cut home
arm in arm they meant no wrong
A gentle breeze blew down Fifth Avenue

Out of a darkened side street came
a New Jersey gang with just one aim
to roll some innocent passer-by
There ensued a fearful fight
screams rang out in the night
Georgie's head hit a sidewalk cornerstone

A leather kid, a switchblade knife
He did not intend to take his life
He just pushed his luck a little too far that night

The sight of blood dispersed the gang
A crowd gathered, the police came
An ambulance screamed to a halt on Fifty-third and Third

Georgie's life ended there
but I ask who really cares
George once said to me and I quote

He said "Never wait or hesitate
Get in kid, before it's too late
You may never get another chance
'Cos youth a mask but it don't last
live it long and live it fast"
Georgie was a friend of mine

Oh Georgie stay, don't go away
Georgie please stay you take our breath away
Oh Georgie stay, don't go away
Georgie please stay you take our breath away
Oh Georgie stay, don't go away
Georgie, Georgie please stay you take our breath away
Oh Georgie stay

[DaVooDooSnake]

Did anyone also notice that this is quite similair to Lou Reed's 'Walk on the Wild Side', from 1972?

[rodbender1252]

has to be one of the greatest songs ever' its certainly my all time favorite' this is 2012 not 1912' who gives a shit if its about a gay'''thanks for the upload

[lilmissnie]

a man lost his life as many bf and after him him did that shud have said.....pfffffft!

[lilmissnie]

tis is the 21s century... wtf has peoples sexuality got to do with anything. A man and many before and after him will lose theres also.... people are who thy are and no amount of hate is going to change that, so if u haters have nothing good to say then don't say anyhing at all.

I dont know this song, i have just played it for my partener(hetrosexual) i agree live and let live...all u haters might just have children that are born gay.. then will u hang ur heads in shame......leave people be !

@Wezzipooh If you think that's funny, I feel sorry for you.

[Wezzipooh]

@69dallas It was a joke. Try interacting with humans in real life sometime, they make jokes often. Christ what a strong reaction! Did you think I was serious? Did you think after reading my comment, people would start to actually BELIEVE it?

[Wezzipooh]

@nitro6961 Ooh! I think we've found one of those out of work comedians! You're comment wasnt very funny for a comedian. Perhaps you should consider a career change. Also where do you come up with those numbers? "235 gay hater mates"?

Also I'm not a gay hater, being gay myself. I've tested my blood and its not acidic at all.

[69dallas]

@Wezzipooh Your comment is as pathetic, infantile and peurile as your moniker. Have your really got nothing better to do with your life than sit on the internet and come up with bilious rubbish such as this?

[nitro6961]

@Wezzipooh 35,000 comedians out of work,and this Fucked up Cunt is trying to be funny,why dont you and 235 of your Gay hater mates stalk a public toilet so the whole group of you can bash 1 person,you need the numbers because your type always lack intestinal fortitude,why dont you do the World a favour and just neck yourself!,die you cunt die!

[Wezzipooh]

@colin2713 Gay people bleed but its more acidic and can irritate the skin.
