[Verse 1]
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 be the one

[Pre-Chorus]
Well, they showed you a statue, told you to pray
They built you a temple and locked you away
Ah, but they never told you the price that you pay
For things that you might have done

[Chorus]
Only the good die young
That's what I said
Only the good die young
Only the good die young

[Verse 2]
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
Aw, but that never hurt no one

[Pre-Chorus]
So come on, Virginia, show me a sign
Send up a signal, I'll throw you a line
The stained-glass curtain you're hiding behind
Never lets in the sun
Darling, only the good die young
That's what I said
[Chorus]
Only the good die young
Only the good die young

[Verse 3]
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
Aw, you didn't count on me
When you were counting on your rosary, oh oh oh

[Pre-Chorus]
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
Don't you know that only the good die young?
That's what I said

[Chorus]
Only the good die young
Only the good die young

[Bridge]
You 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 oh oh
[Pre-Chorus]
Come out, come out, come out, Virginia, don't let me wait
You Catholic girls start much too late
But sooner or later it comes down to fate
I want to be the one

[Chorus]
Because, darling, only the good die young
That's what I said
Only the good die young
Only the good die young
Only the good hoo
Only the good die young
Wooo woooooo
Wooo woooooo

Only the good die young

Thank you
