Don Fardon Belfast Boy Lyrics

Belfast Boy Lyrics

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
