[00:01.28]The Killing Of Georgie (Part I And II) - Rod Stewart
[00:20.75]In these days of changing ways
[00:22.87]So called liberated days
[00:24.81]
[00:25.49]A story comes to mind of a friend of mine
[00:28.74]
[00:30.55]Georgie boy, was gay I guess
[00:32.98]Nothin' more or nothin' less
[00:34.92]
[00:35.98]The kindest guy I ever knew
[00:38.60]
[00:40.72]His mother's tears fell in vain
[00:43.16]The afternoon George tried to explain
[00:45.84]That he needed love like all the rest
[00:48.78]
[00:50.89]Pa said, "There must be a mistake
[00:53.07]How can my son not be straight
[00:55.57]After all I've said and done for him"
[00:59.99]
[01:10.47]Leavin' home on a Greyhound bus
[01:12.78]Cast out by the ones he loves
[01:15.28]A victim of these gay days it seems
[01:18.94]
[01:30.30]Georgie went to New York town
[01:32.41]Where he quickly settled down
[01:34.35]
[01:34.91]And soon became the toast of the great white way
[01:37.47]
[01:39.78]Accepted by Manhattan's elite
[01:41.59]
[01:42.16]In all the places that were chic
[01:44.03]
[01:44.65]No party was complete without George
[01:47.77]
[01:49.77]Along the boulevards he'd cruise
[01:52.14]And all the old queens blew a fuse
[01:54.51]Everybody loved Georgie boy
[01:57.63]
[02:09.80]The last time I saw George alive
[02:11.73]Was in the summer of seventy-five
[02:13.54]
[02:14.11]He said he was in love, I said I'm pleased
[02:17.29]
[02:19.09]George attended the opening night
[02:20.96]
[02:21.59]Of another Broadway hype
[02:23.46]
[02:23.96]But split before the final curtain fell
[02:26.46]
[02:28.90]Deciding to take a short cut home
[02:31.38]Arm in arm they meant no wrong
[02:33.82]A gentle breeze blew down Fifth Avenue
[02:36.71]
[02:48.74]Out of a darkened side street came
[02:50.95]A New Jersey gang with just one aim
[02:53.37]To roll some innocent passer-by
[02:56.61]
[02:58.35]There ensued a fearful fight
[03:00.60]Screams rang out in the night
[03:03.10]Georgie's head hit a sidewalk cornerstone
[03:06.15]
[03:08.09]A leather kid, a switchblade knife
[03:10.40]He did not intend to take his life
[03:12.83]He just pushed his luck a little too far that night
[03:16.89]
[03:17.51]The sight of blood dispersed the gang
[03:20.22]A crowd gathered, the police came
[03:21.97]
[03:22.54]An ambulance screamed to a halt on Fifty-third and Third
[03:26.72]
[03:37.32]Georgie's life ended there
[03:39.82]But I ask, "Who really cares?"
[03:41.63]
[03:42.26]George once said to me and I quote
[03:45.32]
[03:47.00]He said, "Never wait or hesitate
[03:48.93]
[03:49.49]Get in kid before it's too late
[03:51.99]You may never get another chance"
[03:54.99]
[03:56.92]"'Cause youth's a mask but it don't last
[03:59.37]Live it long and live it fast"
[04:01.93]Georgie was a friend of mine
[04:06.09]
[04:52.78]Oh, Georgie stay, don't go away
[05:02.33]
[05:07.14]Georgie please stay, you take our breath away
[05:17.44]
[05:20.30]Oh, Georgie stay, don't go away
[05:30.79]
[05:36.34]Georgie please stay, you take our breath away
[05:46.33]
[05:51.32]Oh, Georgie stay, don't go away
[06:00.14]
[06:05.62]Georgie, Georgie please stay, you take our breath away
[06:12.49]Oh, Georgie stay
