Max Stalling - If Only the Good Die Young lyrics

rate me

I was driving just last week

Out west where it's wide open

When out in a hot plowed field

A dust-devil clicked his heels

And headed for the road

When we intersected

This little whirlwind and me

It sure shook me good

And as it blew cross my hood

It reminded me of life

Chorus:

If only the good die young

I might live forever, I guess

Caught up on the wind

Around and round again

Just trying to do my best

I've been trying to go to church, some

But I keep getting intercepted

By the ball game on TV

Or a Zebco 303

Didn't Peter fish for men?

Chorus:

And if only the good die young

I might live forever, I guess

Casting all about

Trying to figure it all out

Just trying to do my best

There are thing that I have done

And I think I've learned my lessons

But I'd sure hate to get asked

To stand up in class

And explain to everyone

Chorus:

Why if only the good die young

I have lived forever

I'll be stuck here after school

Wondering what to do

Wondering where is everyone?

Chorus:

Ohhh, and if only the good die young

Well, we might live forever

It'll just be me and you

Stuck here in this pew

Wondering, Lord, what have we done?

Chorus:

If only the good die young

I might live forever, I guess

Caught up on the wind

Round and round again

Just trying to do my best
