Billy Joel

Come out, Virginia. Don't make me wait your capital the girls are much too late
Ah, but sooner or later you come down to faith. I might as well be the one
Well, they showed you a statue told you to pray they built you a temple
They locked you away. Ah, but they never told you the price that you pay for things that you might have done
Lonely the good die young
That's what I said, 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, but that never hurt no one.
So come on, Virginia, show me your sign Send up a signal, I thought you were lyin'
The stained glass curtain you're hidin' behind Never let in the sun
Darlin', only the good die young Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I tell you, 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, hmm, and a cross of gold
Oh, but Virginia, they didn't give you
Quite enough information
You didn't count on me
When you were counting on your rosary
Whoa, whoa, they say there's a heaven
For those who will wait
You 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
Oh, baby
I tell you, only the good die young
Only the good die young
Said your mother told you all that I could give you
Was a reputation
She never cared for me, but did she ever say a prayer for me?
Oh, come out, come out, come out, Virginia, don't make me wait.
You Catholic girls are much too late.
Sooner or later comes down the fate.
Might as well be the one.
You know that only the good die young.
Tell you, baby, you know that only the good die young.
Only the good die young, only the good die young, only the good die young, only the good
die young.
Only the good die young, only the good die young, only the good die young, only the good
die young, only the good die young.
