Georgie On A Spree
A D B7 E
Me mammy told me, Isabel, now don’t stay out too late
A D B7 E
One day they’ll throw you out of school so get yourself a steady date
C# F#m B7 E
But Georgie meets me every night, we go out and we have a bite
C# F#m B7 E
Eyes of blue, and money too, he’s rattling the garden gate,
D E
And I can hardly wait—
Chorus:
A D A
When Georgie’s on a spree all the girls are jealous of me
E F#m B7 E
Cause I’m the one he spends his money on, we spend it, one two three,
A D C#
Driving in his Chevrolet I’m perfect company
D A E A
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.
Chorus
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—
Chorus +
He’s the king and I’m his queen
When Georgie’s on a spree
