Belfast Boy Lyrics - Singles - Don Fardon

When I saw you, you looked like a diamond 

As you played in the dust and the grime 

Just a boy from the country of Ireland 

And I knew I could make you shine 

Coz you move like a downtown dancer 

With your hair hung down like a mane 

And your feet play tricks like a juggler 

As you weave to the sound of your name 

Georgie, Georgie, they call you the Belfast Boy 

Georgie, Georgie, they call you the Belfast Boy Georgie, Georgie, keep your feet on the ground 

Georgie, Georgie, when you listen to the sound 

Georgie, Georgie, put a light on your name 

Yeah, yeah, yeah, play the game 

Play the game, boy, play the game 

Just play the way the ball bounces 

And bounce the way the ball plays 

Coz you won't have long in the limelight 

No you won't have many days 

When you live and you play for United 

With your life and your blood and your soul 

You run and you kick and you fight it 

And you learn every way to the goal 

Georgie, Georgie, they call you the Belfast Boy 

Georgie, Georgie, they call you the Belfast Joy 

And they say Georgie, Georgie, keep your feet on the ground 

Georgie, Georgie, when you listen to the sound 

Georgie, Georgie, put a light on your name 

Yeah, yeah, yeah, play the game 

Play the game, boy, play the game 

Play the game, yeah, play the game 

Whoa play the game, man, play the game 

Yeah play the game, now, play the game 

Play the game, yeah, play the game
