Well, 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
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...
Where Only the good die young
I'm Telling you Baby
Where only the good die young
Only the good die young
You might have heard that I run with a dangerous crowd
We ain't too pretty, we ain't too proud
We might be laughing a bit too loud
Ah, 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
It Never lets in the sun
Where Only the good die young
Telling you Baby
That 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
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...
Where Only the good die young
That's what I said
That only the good die young
Only the good die young
And your mother said all that I could give you was a reputation
She didn't cared for me
But did she ever say a prayer for me?
Well, no, no no
Come out, come out, come out
Virginia, don't let me wait,
You Catholic girls, you all 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
That's what I said
You know that only the good die young
Only the good die young
Only the good
Only the good die young
Ooooooohhh
Ooooooohhh
Ooooooohhh
Only the good die young
Ooooooohhh
Ooooooohhh
Ooooooohhh
Ooooooohhh
