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 a way with the words of a love song. Lord make me a rainbow I'll shine down on my mother, She'll know I'm safe with you when she stands under my colors. Oh, and life ain't always what you think it ought to 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 If I die young, bury me in satin Lay my 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 on my little cold finger I've never know the loving of a man But it sure felt nice when he was holding me hand The's a boy here in town, says he'll love me for 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 never did is done A penny for my thought, oh no, I'll sell'em for a dollar they're worth so much more after I'm a goner And maybe when you'll hear the words I've been singing Funny, when you're dead who people start listening 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 them for a time when you're really gonna need them, oh The sharp knie of a short life Well, I've had just enough time So, put on your best ,boys, And I'll wear my pearls. <3
