《The Killing of Georgie(Pt. I and II)(Live at Leicester， England， 12/5/1976)》歌词

[00:00:01] The Killing Of George (Part I And II) (Live - Leicester England 12 5 76) - Rod Stewart

[00:00:20] In these days of changing ways

[00:00:23] So called liberated days

[00:00:25] A story comes to mind of a friend of mine

[00:00:30] Georgie boy was gay I guess

[00:00:33] Nothin' more or nothin' less

[00:00:36] The kindest guy I ever knew

[00:00:41] His mother's tears fell in vain

[00:00:43] The afternoon George tried to explain

[00:00:46] That he needed love like all the rest

[00:00:51] Pa said "There must be a mistake

[00:00:54] How can my son not be straight

[00:00:56] After all I've said and done for him"

[00:01:11] Leavin' home on a Greyhound bus

[00:01:14] Cast out by the ones he loves

[00:01:16] A victim of these gay days it seems

[00:01:31] Georgie went to New York town

[00:01:34] Where he quickly settled down

[00:01:36] And soon became the toast of the great white way

[00:01:41] Accepted by Manhattan's elite

[00:01:44] In all the places that were chic

[00:01:46] No party was complete without George

[00:01:51] Along the boulevards he'd cruise

[00:01:54] And all the old queens blew a fuse

[00:01:56] Everybody loved Georgie boy

[00:02:11] The last time I saw George alive

[00:02:14] Was in the summer of seventy-five

[00:02:16] He said he was in love I said I'm pleased

[00:02:22] George attended the opening night

[00:02:24] Of another Broadway hype

[00:02:26] But split before the final curtain fell

[00:02:31] Deciding to take a short cut home

[00:02:34] Arm in arm they meant no wrong

[00:02:37] A gentle breeze blew down Fifth Avenue

[00:02:51] Out of a darkened side street came

[00:02:54] A New Jersey gang with just one aim

[00:02:57] To roll some innocent passer-by

[00:03:01] There ensued a fearful fight

[00:03:04] Screams rang out in the night

[00:03:06] Georgie's head hit a sidewalk cornerstone

[00:03:11] A leather kid a switchblade knife

[00:03:14] He did not intend to take his life

[00:03:16] He just pushed his luck a little too far that night

[00:03:22] The sight of blood dispersed the gang

[00:03:24] A crowd gathered the police came

[00:03:27] An ambulance screamed to a halt on Fifty-third and Third

[00:03:42] Georgie's life ended there

[00:03:45] But I ask "Who really cares "

[00:03:47] George once said to me and I quote

[00:03:52] He said "Never wait or hesitate

[00:03:55] Get in kid before it's too late

[00:03:58] You may never get another chance"

[00:04:01] "'Cause youth's a mask but it don't last

[00:04:05] Live it long and live it fast"

[00:04:08] Georgie was a friend of mine

[00:05:01] Oh Georgie stay don't go away

[00:05:15] Georgie please stay you take our breath away

[00:05:38] Don't go away

[00:05:45] Georgie Georgie please stay

[00:05:54] You take our breath away
