You were the player whose feet were kissed by god
Adoring fans who worshipped every piece of earth on which you trod
Whether Uniteds red or the green of your home country Ireland
Shoulder to shoulder with you we all wanted to stand
We couldn’t all do that so we all watched you in awe
Counting every second ’til it was your turn to score
The knocks and kicks you took in your stride
Filling every fan and followers whole with pride
But now you’re gone the angels will sing
‘Cos’ god wants you to play in heaven on his wing
So goodbye George at least i now know
That in your footsteps one day I’ll follow
Goodbye George you were ‘Simply The Best’
