SINGER: Billy Joel

SONG:Only The Good Die Young

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, will 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
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
ah but that never hurt noone
So come on virginia show me a sign
send up a signal i'll throw you a line
that stained glass curtain you're hiding behind
never lets in the sun
Darlin only the good die young
i tell you only the good die young
only the good die young
You get a nice white dress
and a party on your confirmation
you've got a brand new soul
mm 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
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
i tell you only the good die young
only the good die young
You said your mother told you
all i could give you was a reputation
ah she never cared for me
but did she ever say a prayer for me?
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
