Only the Good Die Young
Come out Virginia, don't let 'em wait,You Catholic girls start much too late.Aw, but sooner or later it comes down to faithOh, I might as well be the one.
Well, they showed you a statue, told you to pray,They built you a temple and locked you awayAw, but they never told you the price that you payFor things that you might have done.Only the good die young,That's what I said.Only the good die young,Only the good die young.
You might have heard I run with a dangerous crowd.We ain't too pretty, we ain't too proud,We might be laughing a bit too loudAw, but that never hurt no one.
So come on Virginia, show me a sign,Send up a signal and I'll throw you the line.The stained-glass curtain you're hiding behindNever let's in the sun.Darlin' only the good die young.Woah,I tell yaOnly the good die young,Only the good die young.
You got a nice white dress and a party on your confirmation,You got a brand new soulMmm, and a cross of gold.But Virginia they didn't give you quite enough information,You didn't count on me,When you were counting on your rosary(Oh woah woah)
They say there's a heaven for those who will wait.Some say it's better but I say it ain't.I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints,The sinners are much more fun.
You know that only the good die young.I tell yaOnly the good die young,Only the good die young.
Well, your mother told you all that I could give you was a reputation.Aw, she never cared for me,But did she ever say a prayer for me? oh woah woah
Come out, come out, come out, Virginia, don't let 'em wait,You Catholic girls start much too late.Oh sooner or later it comes down to faith.Oh, I might as well be the one.You know that only the good die young.
I'm telling you baby,You know that only the good die young,Only the good die young,Only the good,Only the good die young.
