If the Good Die Young

[00:12.92] It was Sunday morning, I was seven years old
[00:15.91] In the backyard playing in a big mudhole
[00:18.90] I was all decked out, ready for church
[00:21.91] Had my brand-new suit all covered in dirt
[00:25.23] Mama hit the ceiling, she was fit to be tied
[00:28.37] Talkin' 'bout how she's gonna tan my hide
[00:31.25] But daddy was laughing when I changed my clothes
[00:34.22] Saying, "Mama, leave the boy alone"
[00:37.22] 'Cause if the good die young
[00:40.28] If the good die young
[00:43.69] Mama's little boys gonna have a lot of fun
[00:46.60] 'Cause he's gonna live forever if the good die young
[00:55.93] Ten years later had a hot rod ford
[00:59.06] Constable clocked me at a hundred and four
[01:02.16] Judge said, "Boy, you're gonna hurt yourself
[01:04.89] You'd long been dead if you was anybody else"
[01:08.02] If the good die young
[01:11.08] If the good die young
[01:14.48] Oh, there ain't a sentence gonna hold you, son
[01:17.16] 'Cause he's gonna live forever, if the good die young
[01:23.27]
[01:32.43] Well, I got a good heart, I wouldn't hurt a soul
[01:35.63] But I'm gonna keep rocking 'til they call that roll
[01:39.14] Old St. Peter, he's gonna have to wait
[01:42.07] I'm gonna go to heaven, but I might be late
[01:44.85] Let the good die young
[01:47.59] Whoa, and if the good die young
[01:51.28] Pedal to the metal, let your motor run
[01:54.33] 'Cause he's gonna live forever, if the good die young
[01:57.06] And if the good die young
[01:59.70] Now, and if the good die young
[02:03.97] They got the jams, we'll have some fun
[02:06.68] 'Cause I'm gonna live forever if the good die young
[02:09.62] Said I'm gonna live forever if the good die young
[02:13.48]
