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 oh oh oh oh
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 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 on my little cold finger I`ve never known the lovin` of a man But it sure felt nice when I held you in the sun And you, It took my hand said it 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 never 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`
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 oh oh
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 your really gonna need `em oh
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
