Lyrics

Poor Georgie

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I met him in a club hangin out one night

He said, "Hello I'm George.. hi Lyte!

How's everything goin, huh, how ya doin?

Hope everything's fine, ooh, and umm

can I call you sometime? Can I get the digits?

And the address, so I can come visit?"

I gave him the digits, that wasn't a problem

Cause if he caused any, I would have to solve them

cause George looked good, MMM damn good!

And if I didn't, some other girl would

In my mind, I hope for the best

Convincing myself that this was not a test

Cause I heard many things about Georgie

Nothing kinky, like no orgies

I heard he knows how to make love

like an angel from the heaven above

Who was I kidding I'd give him a try

Cause Lyte needs love too and that ain't no lie

Keep your ears open, hope that you listenin

Cause I'm about to take you on a George Porgie mission

"Can it be I've stayed away too long" (2X)

I gave him the number, I saw it in his eyes

"She gave me the number? Hmmm I'm surprised"

Good conversation, over the phone

He began to come for me whenever I was alone

George was sweet, so nice and so neat

With any other guy he didn't have to compete

George was mature, he made sure

that he was the only one I'd ever adore

Girls, have you, ever had a friend

that you'd get with, every now and then?

I know for a fact George had a lot of girls

spread out from state from state around the world

As long as he was smart and kept his girls in check

Made sure I never saw them and showed me respect

He didn't have to be loyal, like men should be

I don't care about the other girls, just be good to me!

But if I ever saw one, that would be the end

He couldn't kick the storyline that she was just a friend

The girls I didn't care, fine legs don't lie

See cause Georgie was into making your girls cry

"Kissed the girls and made them cry" (4X)

"Kissed the girls and made them cry"

"Can it be I've stayed away too long"

"Kissed the girls and made them cry"

"Kissed the girls and made them cry"

"Can it be I've stayed away too long"

"Kissed the girls and..."

George was clean, no drugs and such

But once in a while, he'd drink too much

Hangin in a club where they play rockers

Him and his friend, drinkin vodka

I was lookin for him, and I found him there

With his clothes messed up and his (fucked) up hair

I told him he was messin up he wouldn't go far

He got mad and asked his friend for the keys to the car

I said, "Don't drive, use your head

Drive while you're drunk and you'll kill yourself dead"

We begin to argue, bad words were said

Then he got kicked out by some longhaired dread

Ran into the car as if, in a hurry

He started the car but his vision was blurry

He didn't care, he drove off into the night

Riding for miles, without his headlights

Georgie Porgie had too much on his mind

He was still young yet running out of time

Last week he took tests as the doctor told him

George had cancer in his lungs and his colon

See when he was young, he started smokin

Paid no attention when he started chokin

Thoughts flashed through his head, there they stuck

Till Georgie Porgie, crashed into a truck

I wished I woulda told him how I liked him so much

How he made me feel with the slightest touch

Now he's gone and I can't tell him nothin

Wish he was here so I could say somethin

The story is not to say that I'm in sorrow

Just to say no one is promise tomorrow

If you love someone you should say it often

You never know when they'll be layin in a coffin

Wake up, it's important that you know that

No one on Earth is promised tomorrow..

Believe that! And don't think that it can't happen to you

"Kissed the girls and made them cry" (2X)

"Can it be I've stayed away too long" (4X)

"Kissed the girls and made them cry" (2X)
