Lyrics



 * Hey there, Georgy girl Swingin' down the street so fancy-free Nobody you meet could ever see The loneliness there Inside you.


 * Hey there, Georgy girl There's another Georgy deep inside Bring out all the love you hide And, oh, what a change there'd be The world would see A new Georgy girl.


 * Hey there, Georgy girl Dreamin' of the someone you could be Life is a reality You can't always run away. Don't be so scared of changing And rearranging yourself It's time for jumping down from the shelf A little bit.
