[00:01.190]If I die young bury me in satin
[00:04.210]Lay me down on a bed of roses
[00:08.080]Sink me in the river at dawn
[00:11.480]Send me away with the words of a love song
[00:16.910]oh
[00:22.110]Lord make me a rainbow, I’ll shine down on my mother
[00:25.860]She'll know I’m safe with you when she stands under my colors
[00:30.960]Oh and life ain't always what you think it ought to be, no
[00:34.380]Ain't even grey, but she buries her baby
[00:39.480]The sharp knife of a short life, well
[00:45.510]I’ve had just enough time
[00:50.870]If I die young bury me in satin
[00:54.040]Lay me down on a bed of roses
[00:57.650]Sink me in the river at dawn
[01:01.250]Send me away with the words of a love song
[01:07.360]The sharp knife of a short life, well
[01:13.380]I’ve had just enough time
[01:19.080]And I’ll be wearing white when I come into your kingdom
[01:23.780]I’m as green as the ring on my little cold finger
[01:27.480]I’ve never known the lovin' of a man
[01:30.090]But it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand
[01:33.450]There’s a boy here in town says he’ll love my forever
[01:37.350]Who would have thought forever could be severed by
[01:40.630]The sharp knife of a short life, well
[01:48.860]I’ve had just enough time
[01:54.870]So put on your best boys and I’ll wear my pearls
[01:58.650]What I never did is done
[02:09.120]A penny for my thoughts, oh no I’ll sell them for a dollar
[02:13.070]They're worth so much more after I’m a goner
[02:16.640]And maybe then you’ll hear the words I‘ve been singin’
[02:20.290]Funny when your dead how people start listenin’
[02:29.490]If I die young bury me in satin
[02:32.780]Lay me down on a bed of roses
[02:36.190]Sink me in the river at dawn
[02:39.750]Send me away with the words of a love song
[02:46.290]The ballad of a dove
[02:53.210]Go with peace and love
