Come out Virginia, don't let me wait
You Catholic girls start much too late, Ah...
But sooner or later it comes down to fate
I might as well be the one...
Well, they showed you a statue and told you to pray
Built you a temple and locked you away
But they never told you the price that you pay
For the 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 loud, Ahh...
But that never hurt no one.
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.
Woe Woe Woe... I said...
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, Hmmm, 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
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
Sinners are much more fun
You know that only the good die young, Oh baby,
I tell you, Only the good die young,
Only the good die young,
Tomado de AlbumCancionYLetra.comYou say your mother told you all that I could give you was a reputation
Ahh She never cared for me
But did she ever say a prayer for me? Oh woe woe woe,
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 might as well be the one
You know that
Only the good die young, tell you baby,
Only the good die young
Only the good die young
Only the goooood....
Only the good die young
