If I die young lyrics

Chorus:

If I die young, bury me in satin

Lay me down on a bed of roses

Sink me in the river at dawn

Send me away with the words of a love song

Lors make me a rainbow

I'll shine down on my mother

She'll know I'm safe with you when she stands under my colours,oh and life ain't always what you think it oughta be no

Ain't even grey,but she buries her baby

The sharp knife of a short life,

Well,I've had just enough time

Chorus:

If I die young bury me in satin

Lay me down on a bed of roses

Sink me in the river at dawn

Send me away with the words of a love song

The sharp knife of a short life,

Well I've had just enough time

And I'll be wearing white when I come into your kingdom

I'm as green as the ring of my little cold finger

I've never know the lovin' of a man

But it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand

There's a boy here in town says he'll love me forever

Who would have thought forever could be severed by

The sharp knife of a short life,well I've had just enough time

So put on your best boys and I'll wear my pearls

What I nerver did is done

A penny for my thoughts oh no,

I'll sell them for a dollar.They're worth so much more after I'm a goner

And maybe then you'll hear the words I been singin'

Funny when you're dead how people start listenin'

Chrous:

If I die young bury me in satin

Lay me down on a bed of roses

Sink me in the river at dawn

Send me away with the words of a love song

The ballad of a dove

Go with peace and love

Gather up your tears

Keep'em in your pocket

Save ' em for a time when your really gonna need'em

The sharp knife of a short life,

Well I've had just enough time

So put on your best boys and I'll wear my pearls .
