For George the (BELFAST BOY)

1/
You went out and played the beautiful game (our Belfast boy)
No one played it quite the same as (our Belfast boy)
You had the world at you?re feet (our Mancunian boy)
You kept us glued to our seats (our Mancunian boy)


2/
So much joy was given by you (our Belfast boy)
The best was Best now we know that?s true (our Belfast boy)
Never seen it played as good as you (our Mancunian boy)
Thank you George, our thoughts remain with you (our Mancunian boy)

Chorus

Well now the clouds won?t hassle you, they won?t ask of you
They won?t kick you when you?re down
You won?t have to be found
Won?t have to be

Well now the clouds won?t bother you, they won?t ask of you
They won?t kick you when you?re down
You won?t have to be found

Won?t have to be
Our Belfast Boy, our Mancunian boy

3/
It?s always the best that have to die young (our Belfast boy)
It?s always the best that remain unsung (our Belfast boy)
You?ll remain our hero Georgie boy (our Mancunian boy)

Our Mancunian boy, Our Belfast Boy



In loving memory of the ?greatest?
