God Takes The Good Ones First
(David Nicastro)


Lately I've been thinking about some friends and family
Lifted up on angels’ wings that have gone ahead of me
I know that the good Lord don’t mess up when he makes his plans
And there’s a time for everyone it’s all in his hands

CHORUS
God takes the good ones first or so I've been told
If that's the truth I guess I’ll plan to be gray and old
When lightning strikes it’s gonna miss me by a country mile
God takes the good ones first so I’ll be around for a while

The preachers says we're sinners I tell you I’m no saint
I can go on and on forever about all the good things that I ain't
I'm told that the good die young my ticket’s not punched yet
With some of the things I’ve done that's a safe sure bet

CHORUS
God takes the good ones first or so I've been told
If that's the truth I guess I’ll plan to be gray and old
When lightning strikes it’s gonna miss me by a country mile
God takes the good ones first so I’ll be around for a while

The Lord calls the chosen first and leaves some of us behind
When judgement day comes around I’ll be waiting at the back of the line

CHORUS
God takes the good ones first or so I've been told
If that's the truth I guess I’ll plan to be gray and old
God takes the good ones first or so I've been told
If that's the truth I guess I’ll plan to be gray and old
When lightning strikes it’s gonna miss me by a country mile
God takes the good ones first so I’ll be around for a while
