If I die young Lyrics by The band perry

If I die young
Artist : the band perry

If I die young, bury me in sat in..
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
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 gray, 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 wordsof 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 loving 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 never did is done
A penny for my thoughts, oh no, I'll sell em for a dollar
They're worth so much more after I'm a goner
And maybe then you'll hear the words I been singing
Funny, when you're dead how 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 knife of a short life
Well, I've had just enough time
So put on your best, boys
And I'll wear my pearls..
