Scorpions - The Good Die Young Lyrics






You wake up
Watch the world go 'round
You shiver
Feeling upside down
Your heart is beating fast
Pumping blood to your head
Another day to fight
You have a prayer on your lips under the desert sun
And a loaded gun

You remember
That your father said
Stay out of trouble son
If you're true to yourself
You'll be working like a dog
Raise a family
And life will be alright
But now it's written in the stars if you'll make it out alive
Out alive

The good die young
There might be no tomorrow
In god we trust
Through all this pain and sorrow
The good die young
The flame will burn forever
And no one knows your name
Bring the boys back home again

It was a quiet day
On the streets of hope
When the bomb went off
At the side of the road
Sounds of breaking steel
An windshield full of blood
No enemy in sight
It feels like in a movie scenes are passing by
It's your life

The good die young
There might be no tomorrow
In god we trust
Through all this pain and sorrow
The good die young
The flame will burn forever
And no one knows your name
Bring the boys back home again

You remember every word
That your father said
Stay out of trouble son
That'll be true to yourself
Got a prayer on your lips under the desert sun
And the loaded gun

  17. A.... o....

    Δεν ήμασταν φίλοι.Όμως σε έβλεπα κάθε μέρα..Έμενες ακριβώς από πάνω μου..Η εκκίνηση και το παρκάρισμα της μηχανής πίσω από το αμάξι μου..Έλεγα ''Ήρθε ο Ιωσήφ'' πριν σβήσω το τελευταίο μου τσιγάρο για το βράδυ..Ένα: ''Καλημέρα, ρε Σήφη, τι κάνεις?'' ''Καλημέρα ρε Παύλο τι λέει?'' λίγα λόγια για τα προβλήματα μας και λίγα λόγια για τον αγαπημένο μας Παναθηναϊκό..Παρόλα αυτά δεν θα ξεχάσω ΠΟΤΈ την πρώτη και τελευταία μας μεγάλη κουβέντα στο αμάξι μου το Σεπτέμβριο του 2017..Μου είπες κάποια πράγματα τόσο σημαντικά και αληθινά που θα τα θυμάμαι για πάντα..Δεν ήσουν φίλος μου..Ήσουν όμως κομμάτι της καθημερινότητας μου...Μιας καθημερινότητας που όταν αλλάζει τρομάζει..Καλό ταξίδι Ιωσήφ..Ο Θεός θα αναπαύσει σίγουρα την ψυχή ΣΟΥ..!!! 😥✝️🙏 Η φλόγα σου θα καίει για πάντα!!!!!!

    I had to punch a wall to feel manly again... but here's the lyrics

    You wake up

    But now it's written in the stars if you'll make it out alive
    Out alive

    The good die young
    There might be no tomorrow
    In god we trust
    Through all this pain and sorrow
    The good die young
    The flame will burn forever

    Passado Presente Futuro Esperança Sempre Em Deus sempre Confiarmos mesmo achando como criaturas feitas a Sua Imagem e Semelhança sejam capazes de proezas tristes para seus semelhantes. O que o Salmista se refere é que em Deus faremos proezas, para o bem, que coisas maiores faríamos do que Jesus Cristo fez, crendo em Seu Excelso e Soberano Nome.

  48. D.... N....

    its a pity that is scorpions last album i hate that.

    D.... N....

    The thing to keep in mind is the fact that the Scorpions have been around since the 1970s.  They're old, and many, many great bands who have been around that long are either retiring or planning their farewell tours.

    All wars are based on lies orchestrated by the Bankster vampires who control all governments including the ALLEGED nuclear countries. Nuclear weapons are a ruse to start WW3. Nukes don't exist but Tesla Directed Energy weapons do exist. Common sense says the vampire elite have no intention of destroying the earth they just want to burn it down then rebuild like a pagan Phoenix rising out of the ashes

    A.... K....

    LordGandor3 makes sense, I guess.

    A.... K....

    ахуенно!

  57. p.... ....

    I wana stick my foot in the ass of 8 people

    It ain't worth it. Enjoy this great song instead ;)

    +passionror so was it worth it? (I hope you say yes)

    RIP Paul Walker

    p.... ....

    @passionror Congratulations on your decision and know that you can reach out to me for support at any time.
    @Moaz Derf I stopped practicing Islam because, like all Abrahamic religions, it is nothing more than an elaborate fairy tale. God is not real. Put your faith in logic, science and common sense. The only miracle of the Quran is the fact that it has brainwashed and manipulated millions of people into living in fear of an imaginary entity. But that's really no miracle. It's just sad. Life is what we are living now. Afterlife is just blank space. Instead of living like a monk and wasting your precious time with your forehead pressed to the floor, you should be out enjoying what the world has to offer.

    p.... ....

    @Tonya W how about we meet, face to face... I'll book a flight from saudi arabia to america just to see you

    p.... ....

    @Moaz Derf Why? So you can sweet talk me into marrying you, drag me back to Saudi Arabia, cover me head to toe in one of those horrid niqabs and not allow me to drive? Oh now that sounds great! When do I get to meet your other wives? How long will we be married before you get tired of me, find four guys to confirm that I committed adultery and have me executed? Don't try to say that these things don't happen. It happens every day throughout the Middle East. Every day women are oppressed by men in the name of religion.

    p.... ....

    @Tonya W the truth is I'm different because I grew up in Fortcollins, Colorado and I took intensive courses in Europe on how to treat women the right way,so I know how to treat woman...and I agree with you that most Arab men don't respect women and I want to live with you and marry you and move to America or any country...and I don't have any wife since my divorce in 2010 ( a traditional marriage that I was against it)........I just want you to get to know me before judging me

    I just wanna see you in person to show how a husband serves his wife...   

    and what about your ex husband why did you divorce him?

    p.... ....

    @Lenore Black your daughter should stay a muslim; you listen to me you hear

    T.... ....

    @Sergio Gehrer Deren 1. Album "Lonesome Crow" von 1972 war auch sehr experimentell. Die 90s Scorpions haben auch bis 1999 (Eye II eye) gerockt. Na ja, Pure Instinct war immerhin eine Schulnote 4 wert.

    Let's not talk about Linkin Park ,Green day or others because if you love Scorpions ,you don't need to talk about how stupid other bands are ,like you know everything .Maybe Scorpions are better than a lot of bands but that doesn't matter .Everybody listens to what they like .I think it's stupid to comment about how stupid other singers are at an awesome music video .It's music .Everybody listen what they want . :) Enjoy .
