Only the Good Die Young (Live on SNL)

[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
