If the Good Die Young (2007 Remaster)

歌詞

It was Sunday morning I was seven years old In the backyard playing in a big mud hole I was all decked out ready for church Had my brand new suit all covered in dirt Mama hit the ceiling she was fit to be tied Talking about how she's gonna tan my hide But Daddy was laughing when I changed my clothes Saying Mama leave the boy alone Cuz if the good die young if the good die young Our little boy's gonna have a lot of fun Cuz he's gonna live forever if the good die young Ten years later had a hot rod Ford Constable clocked me at a hundred and four Judge said Boy you're gonna hurt yourself You'd a long been dead if you was anybody else Cuz if the good die young yeah if the good die young Oh there ain't a sentence gonna hold you son Cuz your gonna live forever if the good die young Well I got a good heart I wouldn't hurt a soul But I'm gonna keep rocking till they call that roll Old St. Peter's gonna have to wait I'm gonna go to heaven but I might be late Cuz if the good die young Lordy if the good die young Pedal to the metal let your motor run Cuz I'm gonna live forever if the good die young And if the good die young Lordy if the good die young Take out the jams we'll have some fun Cuz I'm gonna live forever if the good die young I'm gonna live forever if the good die young
