THE BAND PERRY - IF I DIE YOUNG SONGLYRICS
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 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 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
