Richard & Linda Thompson - Georgie On A Spree (BBC Theme) lyrics

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
