Bee Gees - The Earnest Of Being George Lyrics

Bee Gees Lyrics

"The Earnest Of Being George"

You better run just as fast as you can
I've got no reason to try
You did it to me and I'm taking a stand
You've got a reason to cry

Fairy stories in the penny arcade
You bought my love and I paid
I'm not trying to make history
You could have been good to me

Fairy stories in the penny arcade
You bought my love and I paid (all right)
I'm not trying to make history
You could have been good to me

Spent my life making my love to you
I've got no reason to try
Got no reason left for making you blue
You've got a reason to cry

Fairy stories in the penny arcade
You bought my love and I paid
I'm not trying to make history
You could have been good to me

You better run just as fast as you can
You better run just as fast as you can
