In these days of changing ways So called liberated days A story comes to mind of a friend of mineGeorgie boy, was gay I guess Nothin' more or nothin' less The kindest guy I ever knewHis mother's tears fell in vain The afternoon George tried to explain That he needed love like all the restPa said, there must be a mistake How can my son not be straight After all I've said and done for himLeavin' home on a Greyhound bus Cast out by the ones he loves A victim of these gay days it seemsGeorgie went to New York town Where he quickly settled down And soon became the toast of the great white wayAccepted by Manhattan's elite In all the places that were chic No party was complete without GeorgeAlong the boulevards he'd cruise And all the old queens blew a fuse Everybody loved Georgie boyThe last time I saw George alive Was in the summer of seventy-five He said he was in love, I said I'm pleasedGeorge attended the opening night Of another Broadway hype But split before the final curtain fellDeciding to take a short cut home Arm in arm they meant no wrong A gentle breeze blew down Fifth AvenueOut of a darkened side street came A New Jersey gang with just one aim To roll some innocent passer-byThere ensued a fearful fight Screams rang out in the night Georgie's head hit a sidewalk cornerstoneA leather kid, a switchblade knife He did not intend to take his life He just pushed his luck a little too far that nightThe sight of blood dispersed the gang A crowd gathered, the police came An ambulance screamed to a halt on Fifty-third and ThirdGeorgie's life ended there But I ask, who really cares? George once said to me and I quoteHe said, never wait or hesitate Get in kid before it's too late You may never get another chance'Cause youth's a mask but it don't last Live it long and live it fast Georgie was a friend of mineOh, Georgie stay, don't go away Georgie please stay, you take our breath away Oh, Georgie stay, don't go away Georgie please stay, you take our breath away Oh, Georgie stay, don't go away Georgie, Georgie please stay, you take our breath away
