Only the Good Die Young

Come out Virginia  don’t let me me wait   You Catholic girls start  much too late But sooner or later it comes down to fate             I might as well be the one      They showed you a statue and  told you to pray They built you a temple and  locked you away But they never told you the  price that you pay For things that you might have done.....            For   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 loud But that never hurt no one          So come on Virginia  show me a sign   Send up a signal I’ll  throw you the line The stained-glass curtain you’re   hiding behind Never lets in the sun             Darlin  only the good die young        woh - oh           Only 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 soul        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   oh   oh    And_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  only the good die  young      that’s what I say           Only the good die young   only the  good die young                                            You say your mother told you all that I could    Give you was a reputa-tion         She never cared for me  But did she ever say a prayer for me?    Oh   oh   oh    And_they
