Lyrics
Come out, Virginia, don't let me wait You Catholic girls start much too late Aw, but sooner or later it comes down to fate I might as well will be the one Well, they showed you a statue, told you to pray They built you a temple and locked you away Aw, but they never told you the price that you pay For things that you might have done Well, only the good die young That's what I said Only the good die young Only the good die young You mighta 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 Aw, 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 let's in the sun Darlin', only the good die young Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa I tell ya 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 Mmm, 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-whoa-whoa 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 that only the good die young, oh, baby I tell ya only the good die young Only the good die young Said 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-whoa-whoa Come out, come out, come out, Virginia, don't let me wait You Catholic girls start much too late Sooner or later it comes down to fate I might as well will be the one You know that only the good die young Tell you, baby You know that only the good die young Only the good die young Only the good Only the good die young Ooh-ooh, ooh-hoo Ooh-ooh-hoo-hoo Ooh-ooh, ooh-hoo Ooh-ooh-hoo-hoo Ooh-ooh, ooh-hoo Ooh-ooh-hoo-hoo Only the good die young Only the good die young
