Tracy Lawrence - If The Good Die Young

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
and my brand new suit was all covered in dirt

Mama hit the ceiling she was fit to be tied
talking bout how she's gonna tan my hide
Daddy was laughing as I changed my clothes
said mama leave the boy alone

Cause if the good die young
if the good die young
Mama's little boy gonna have a lot of fun
Cause he's gonna live forever
if the good die young

Ten years later I 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 were anybody else

Cause if the good die young
if the good die young
Oh there ain't a sentence gonna hold you son
Cause you're gonna live forever
if the good die young

Well I've got a good heart
I wouldn't hurt a soul
But I'm gonna keep rocking
till they call that roll
Old St Pete he's gonna have to wait
I'm gonna go to Heaven but I might be late

Cause if the good die young
Lord if the good die young
Pedal to the metal
let your motor run
Cause I'm gonna live forever
if the good die young

If the good die young
Lord if the good die young
They got the jams We'll have some fun
I'm gonna live forever
if the good die young
Yeah I'm gonna live forever
if the good die young
