Georgie On A Spree

   A (x02220@1)   D (xx0232@1)         B7 (x21202@1)   E (022100@1)Me mammy told me, Isabel, now don't stay out too late
A (x02220@1)           D (xx0232@1)              B7 (x21202@1)            E (022100@1)One day they'll throw you out of school so get yourself a steady date
    C# (x43121@1)             F#m (244222@1)        B7 (x21202@1)             E (022100@1)     
But Georgie meets me every night, we go out and we have a bite
C# (x43121@1)              F#m (244222@1)           B7 (x21202@1)                E (022100@1)     
Eyes of blue, and money too, he's rattling the garden gate,
    D (xx0232@1)          EAnd (022100@1)I can hardly wait?

Chorus:
     A (x02220@1)                          D (xx0232@1)                  A (x02220@1)When Georgie's on a spree all the girls are jealous of me
      E (022100@1)                       F#m (244222@1)        B7 (x21202@1)              E (022100@1)    
Cause I'm the one he spends his money on, we spend it, one two three,
A (x02220@1)                          D (xx0232@1)          C# (x43121@1)  
Driving in his Chevrolet I'm perfect company
D (xx0232@1)               A (x02220@1)                E (022100@1)            A (x02220@1)
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
