Lyrics:

It was sunday morning, I was seven years old In the backyard playing in a big mudhole 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 Talkin bout how shes gonna tan my hide But daddy was laughing when I changed my clothes saying 'mama leave the boy alone' (chorus) Cause if the good die young If the good die young Mamas little boy gonna have alot of fun Cause hes 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 youre gonna hurt yourself Youd a long been dead if you were anybody else' (chorus) Cause if the good die young If the good die young Oh there aint a sentence gonna hold you son Cause hes gonna live forever if the good die young ___ Well I got a good heart, I wouldnt hurt a soul But Im gonna keep rocking till they call that roll Old st.peter hes gonna have to wait Im gonna go to heaven but I might be late (chorus) Cause if the good die young If the good die young Pedal to the metal, let your motor run Cause hes gonna live forever if the good die young ___ (chorus) And if the good die young If the good die young They got the jams, well have some fun Cause Im gonna live forever if the good die young ___
