Josie Edwards Good Girls Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Streetlight, pick a fight with a stranger
I've been saving up my anger
Stacking up like pennies in my pocket
Whistle like a runaway train, and I lost it
Good girls die young, don't you know they got 'em
All lined up with names on their coffins
Mary Beth died with stars in her eyes
I've been runnin' from her ghost all my life, oh

[Chorus]
Ooh-ooh, ah, I hear them crying, crying
Good girls, good girls
[Verse 2]
Broken pieces under the rug
A thesis of all I've loved
Reeling in the aftermath
I wish that you could take it back
Burnin' in my lungs again
The taste of your carcinogen
Every breath, a feelin'
I'm gettin' good at hеalin'

[Chorus]
Ooh-ooh, ah, I hear them crying, crying
Good girls, good girls

[Bridge]
Don't waste your timе on me
I followed your liturgy
I'm takin' back my offering
The blood I bleed, my eulogy You buried me, and now I'm singin'

[Chorus]
Ooh-ooh, ah, I hear them crying, crying
Good girls, good girls

[Verse 3]
Streetlight, pick a fight with a stranger
I've been saving up my anger
Stacking up like pennies in my pocket
Whistle like a runaway train, and I lost it
Good girls die young, don't you know they got 'em
All lined up with names on their coffins (I hear them)
Mary Beth died with stars in her eyes (Cryin', cryin')
I've been runnin' from her ghost all my life, oh (Good girls, good girls)
[Chorus]
Ooh-ooh, ah, I hear them crying, crying
Good girls, good girls
Ooh-ooh, ah, I hear them crying, crying
Good girls, good girls

[Outro]
Good girls die young, don't you know they got 'em
All lined up with names on their coffins
Mary Beth died with stars in her eyes
I've been runnin' from her ghost all my life
