《The Killing Of Georgie》歌词

[00:00:00] The Killing Of Georgie - Lo Mejor De Las Baladas Rockeras/Lo Mejor del R&B, Vol. 4

[00:00:19] In these days of changing ways

[00:00:22] So called liberated days

[00:00:24] A story comes to mind of a friend of mine

[00:00:29] Georgie boy was gay I guess

[00:00:32] Nothin' more or nothin' less

[00:00:34] The kindest guy I ever knew

[00:00:39] His mother's tears fell down in vain

[00:00:41] The afternoon George tried to explain

[00:00:44] That he needed love like all the rest

[00:00:49] Pa said there must be a mistake

[00:00:51] How can my son not be straight

[00:00:54] After all I've said and done for him

[00:01:09] Leavin' home on a Greyhound bus

[00:01:11] Cast out by the ones he loves

[00:01:14] A victim of these gay days it seems

[00:01:28] Georgie went to New York town

[00:01:31] Where he quickly settled down

[00:01:33] And soon became the toast of the great white way

[00:01:38] Accepted by Manhattan's elite

[00:01:40] In all the places that were chic

[00:01:43] No party was complete without George

[00:01:48] Along the boulevards he'd cruise

[00:01:50] And all the old queens blew a fuse

[00:01:52] Everybody loved Georgie boy

[00:02:07] The last time I saw George alive

[00:02:10] Was in the summer of seventy-five

[00:02:12] He said he was in love I said I'm pleased

[00:02:17] George attended the opening night

[00:02:19] Of another Broadway hype

[00:02:22] But split before the final curtain fell

[00:02:27] Deciding to take a short cut home

[00:02:29] Arm in arm they meant no wrong

[00:02:32] A gentle breeze blew down Fifth Avenue

[00:02:47] Out of a darkened side street came

[00:02:49] A New Jersey gang with just one aim

[00:02:51] To roll some innocent passer-by

[00:02:56] There ensued a fearful fight

[00:02:59] Screams rang out in the night

[00:03:01] Georgie's head hit a sidewalk cornerstone

[00:03:06] A leather kid a switchblade knife

[00:03:08] He did not intend to take his life

[00:03:11] He just pushed his luck a little too far that night

[00:03:16] The sight of blood dispersed the gang

[00:03:18] A crowd gathered the police came

[00:03:21] An ambulance screamed to a halt on Fifty-third and Third

[00:03:36] Georgie's life ended there

[00:03:38] But I ask who really cares

[00:03:40] George once said to me and I quote

[00:03:45] He said "Never wait or hesitate

[00:03:48] Get in kid before it's too late

[00:03:50] You may never get another chance

[00:03:55] 'Cos youth a mask but it don't last

[00:03:58] Live it long and live it fast"

[00:04:00] Georgie was a friend of mine
