If I Die Young Medley
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
Uh-oh uh-oh
Lord make me a rainbow
I'll shine down on my mother
She'll know i'm safe with you
When she stand under my colors
Oh, and life ain't always what you think
It oughta be, no ain't even great
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 felt in love with the one,
But it sure felt nice when I held you in the sun
And you took my hand said,
love me forever.
Who would have thought
Forever could me severed
By the sharp knife
Of a short life
Well I have just enough time
If I die young
A penny for my thoughts
Oh no, I'll sell them for a dollar
They're worth so much more
After I'm a gonner
And maybe then you'll hear
The words i've been singing
Funny when you're dead
How people start to 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 lovesong
Uh-oh(uh-oh)
The ballad of a dove
Uh-oh(uh-oh)
Go with peace and love
Gather up your tears
Keep them in your pocket
Save them for a time
When you're really gonna need them, ooh
The sharp knife, of a short life
