This is about a transvestite living in Belfast. THis man is very nice and socialable. Every one goes to his parties and eats his food but wont even look him in the eye. He is a very sad character and Van feels for sympathetic and maybe even empathetic. Then the cops show up or maybe george gets frustrated with the whole thing and just says that in order to clear the room. He then realizes he doesnt belong and has to leave. But he must leave out the back so noone will see him(is he ashamed?) He decides to go from the Sandy Row(protestant Ireland) to Dublin (Catholic). ANd finally he says goodbye in one of the most beautiful touching parts in music, in my opinion. This song is a little iffy on the exact meaning but in any event its sad stuff.
If you listen to the song you will realise
"And you know you gotta go
On that train from Dublin up to Sandy Row" and not the other way. I think your other suggestions are equally wide of the mark and "iffy" to quote yourself - you are not the song!

Wait hold a second... why is this madame george a transvistite.... where is the proof to that. Lots of people have last names that start with George. I believe most times, it goes Madame/Monsieur (last name). Clarification please.
