Michael, George - Round Here Lyrics
My daddy got here on the gravy train
I guess my mama had a real bad start to the game
They went walking and she took his name
Round here
Waiting tables, chasing girls with the money he made
It was 1957, and love felt the same, love felt the same
Frightened little girl, she makes a break
Into the arms of... something better
Round here
I hear my mama call in Kingsbury Park
Just me and David and a football that glowed in the dark
Waiting patiently to make my mark
And I remember my first day at school
And I remember trouble, and thinking I was so cool
I remember it all, like yesterday
Don't you
Every time I try to leave this place
Something inside says, "You can do better"
Round here
So come with me, let me show you where I've lived
I want to put my hands in this earth again
Music fell like rain to the streets
The Specials and The Jam, to The Beat
Even though I think I've seen everything there is to see of this world
I gotta be thankful that this crowded space
Is the place of my birth
When all that I wanted, was to be someone.
Two little Hitlers in an old church hall
Some cheesy covers and those neighbours that banged on the walls
Andy says it's time to show them all
Round here
Please sir, we two have other plans
Please sir you would not understand,
What's going on
Is magical, can't you see
That some of us do more than dream
Every time I try to leave this place
Something inside says, "Keep on keeping, on and on...."
Around here
So come with me, let me show you where I've lived
I want to put my hands in this earth again
Music fell like rain to the streets
The Specials and The Jam, ABC
Even though I think I've seen everything there is to see of this world
I gotta be thankful that this crowded space
Is the place of my birth
My birth,
In this town,
Yes I guess I got to be someone
To be somebody
In the Beautiful city
This place I call home
These streets of London
It's everything I know (everything and everybody)
On the streets of London
I want to thank you
My daddy got here on the gravy train.

Michael, George Round Here Comments
George 💙💚💛💜💟😍😘
George takes me back in time.
🙏 Thanks George
If I dig deep enough, I always find a George Michael's song, I am not familiar with. Some of his songs make me cry b/c - he died alone. 🍁🍂💫
Voice of ANGEL....
Det er sgu musik .👍🤟🤘🤜🇩🇰🇩🇰🤛❤...
Ok the vocals are obviously legendary, and no one comes close...but can we just appreciate that little “1, 2-3/beep, bop-beep” instrumental beat that’s thrown in the song background here and there?
Такой как Джордж Майкл больше никогда не будет в жизни. Очень привлекательный, щедрый, жизнерадостный. Его голос, музыка настолько захватывают... Очень жаль, что так рано ушёл из жизни. Царствие ему небесное. Пускай ему будет так же хорошо как и в земной жизни было.
Das hört man nicht oft im Radio....und dennoch sehr schön....soooo coool....wie sonst nur Sade....Er ist und bleibt ein riesiger Verlust für uns alle...
!!!!!💝🌼 round here 🌸💝!!!!!!
This is what we used to call "soul music" which was mostly heard from African Americans , which required one to dig deep inside to bear their soul through music. On rare occasion, we might see or feel the same magic from one that is not AA. George Michael had that gift of soul which transcends skin color.
Oh my I cry when I hear this song. I was 21 when I left from South Africa to stay in London. I loved George from the time I was a young girl so when I heard this song on the plane whilst taking my luggage out it made me feel comfortable in a foreign city.
OMG, I came across this song a couple of years ago and I have not stopped listening to it. I love George and all of his music, but there is something about this song, beat, lyrics, etc that I just love. You are truly missed, George.
Another murdered superstar
He still will be missed , by me , by us all, who loved his Music . He was one of a kind . He leaves a huge gap in the World of Music.
Todo lo que hacia musicalmente hablando, era maravilloso. Se fue muy pronto, y tendria mucho por darnos
I love grave train
The most complete, succinctly arranged, played and beautifully sung story! Says it all. Giant x
Timeless
My heart still breaks. This wonderful voice is silenced. Peace be with you, George, we miss you.

"All that I wanted was to be someone" and you did it. You were the one in difficult moments in my life. Thank you for giving us your heart in every song.

Mmmmm....the sweet, autobiographical Round Here. It's songs like this one from his last album that pains me the most when I listen to George's music.He was only getting better and better with that fantastic voice of his. He would have made so much more beautiful songs for us all for years and years to come. That's why I feel the saddest and a bit teary-eyed whenever I hear his album Patience. I'll miss him forever.....
Toujours dans mon coeur sa musique nous fera vibrer pour toujours. Se you soon..bruno
La creatividad de George Michael tuvo una evolución brillante. La madurez alcanzada al momento de componer esta canción lo lleva a querer compartir sus primeros años, el origen mismo de su vida. Un tema que combina a la perfección la suavidad de su melodía con un acompañamiento rico en ornamentación, a pesar de que suene quizá algo sencillo (para nada). Un genio menos entre nosotros, un genio más para recordar con aprecio.
One of my very favorite tunes of George Michael's. He's an incredible talent and will be missed greatly rest peacefully💞😥
RIP GM ! Loved this his number.
Love Love Love this!!!
I miss you George...what went wrong , we will never know.

En güzel şarkı ve ruh heyecan vokal. Ah, evet. Doğum yeri hakkında çok özel bazı şey. Ayrıca umurumda bir kişiye özel bir yer paylaşımı. Ne onlara çıktı özel kişi yaptı? En keyifli melodi. Bir transa hissettiriyor o kadar melodik olduğunu.

Lyrics in case...
My daddy got here on the gravy train
I guess my mama had a real bad start to the game
They went walking and she took his name
Round here
There was dancing in the afternoons those days
Waiting tables, chasing girls with the money he made
It was 1957, and love felt the same, love felt the same
Frightened little girl, she makes a break
Into the arms of... something better
Round here
I hear my mama call in Kingsbury Park
Just me and David and a football that glowed in the dark
Waiting patiently to make my mark
Round here
And I remember my first day at school
And I remember trouble, and thinking I was so cool
I remember it all, like yesterday
Don't you
Every time I try to leave this place
Something inside says, "You can do better"
Round here
So come with me, let me show you where I've lived
I want to put my hands in this earth again
Music fell like rain to the streets
The Specials and The Jam, to The Beat
Even though I think I've seen everything there is to see of this world
I gotta be thankful that this crowded space
Is the place of my birth
When all that I wanted, was to be someone.

My daddy got here on the gravy train
One of his best x
Nice! And I am one cynical bastard.
Great voice, love this song!!!
Most beautiful song and vocals that thrill the soul. Oh yes. Some thing very special about the place of your birth. Also sharing a place that is special to a person that you care about. What made them the special person they turned out to be? Most delightful tune. Makes you feel in a trance it is so melodious. Oh Yeh.
Great track. I love His voice and His music. It's so deep, irregular, sensual. When i put it on its like a journey into another better world. I can listen and do nothing for a while..
Georges songs are so true to his life. He has been through the school of hard knocks but it has only made him so much better as it should. I love him so much.
such a special song of a very special man we love you George and also that gorgeous City :) xxx
Très bel album.........
nice song.. Too bad a lot of George Michael's song are NOT PLAYED on mainstream radio anymore.. daaang.. thank God for youtube.
Love Love Love .......AMAZING !!
very very nice song-and a great voice!!!
lt realy make me comfortable.
I listen to this song in 2004 i think it was April time, excellent song "its music to my ear's".
everytime I try to leave this place...
The GOD.
Gotta love it.....
