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 done for 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 crows We ain't too retty we ain't to proud We might be laughing a bit too loud 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' |
