My Friend George Lou Reed

[Verse 1]
Read in the paper 'bout a man killed with a sword
And that made me think of my friend George
People said the man was five foot six
Sounds like Georgie with his killing stick

[Chorus]
Hey bro', what's the word?
Talkin' 'bout my friend George
Hey bro, what's the word?
Talkin' 'bout my friend George
You talkin' 'bout my friend George

[Verse 2]
I knew George since he's eight
I always thought that he was great
And anything that George would do
You know that I would do it too

[Verse 3]
George liked music and George liked to fight
He worked out in a downtown gym every night
I'd spar with him when work was done
We split lips but it was all in fun

[Chorus]
Hey bro', what's the word?
You talkin' 'bout my friend George
Hey bro, what's the word?
Talkin' 'bout my friend George
Talkin' 'bout my friend George
