[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
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
