It means that if you haven't lived your life fast paced and done some crazy things, then you haven't lived life to its fullest. Dying young in this notation would imply not dying young of age, but young in experience. Young is used as a metaphor. It is to say, in essence, that if you live safely and don't get around you won't know what life is about.

What is the meaning of the song Only The Good Die Young by Billy Joel?

Come out Virginia, don't let me wait You Catholic girls start much too late Ah, but sooner or later, it comes down to fate, I might as well be the one... Well they showed you a statue, told you to pray built you a temple and locked you away Ah, but they never told you the price that you pay For things that you might have done... Only the good die young, That's what I said, Only the good die young, Only the good die young... You might have heard I run with a dangerous crowd We ain't too pretty, we ain't too proud, We might be laughing a bit too loud, Ah, but that never hurt no one! So come on Virginia, show me a sign, Send up a signal and I'll throw you a line. This stained glass curtain you're hiding behind Never lets in the sun... Darling, only the good die young, Whoa whoa wuh whoah ho, I tell ya, only the good die young, Only the good die young... You got a nice white dress and a party on your confirmation You got a brand new soul, mmm, and a cross of gold But Virginia they didn't give you quite enough information You didn't count on me, you were counting on your rosary, oh whoa whoah... They say there's a heaven for those who will wait Some say it's better but I say it ain't I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints, The sinners are much more fun... You know that only the good die young, Whoa whoh bay bey, I tell ya, only the good die young, Only the good die young... 'Cept your mama told me all I could give ya was a reputation, Ah, she never cared for me, did she ever say a prayer for me, oh whoah whoah Come out, come out, Virginia, don't let me wait You Catholic girls start much too late Sooner or later it comes down to fate, I might as well be the one... You know that only the good die young, Tell ya, bay bey, You know that only the good die young, Only the good die young... Only the good, good, Only the good die young, Whoo hoo hoooo, whooo, whoo hoo hoooo hoo
