Me mammy told me, Isabel, now dont stay out too late
One day theyll 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, hes rattling the garden gate,
And I can hardly wait
Chorus
When Georgies on a spree all the girls are jealous of me
Cause Im the one he spends his money on, we spend it, one two three,
Driving in his Chevrolet Im perfect company
Hes the king and Im his queen when Georgies on a spree.
We dont 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 were tired of the Ritz hes 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, Im leaving you, I have to go away;
But Ill be back in a week or two and Ill be thinking just of you
Sit beside your telephone until that lucky day
When I come home to stay
Chorus +
Hes the king and Im his queen
When Georgies on a spree
