[00:00.74]If I die young burry me in satin
[00:04.14]Lay me down on a bed of roses
[00:07.84]Sink me in the river at dawn
[00:11.52]Send me away with the words of a love song
[00:15.99]oh oh oh oh
[00:22.43]Lord make me a rainbow I'll shine down on my mother
[00:26.14]She'll know I'm safe with you
[00:28.15]When she stands under my colors oh and
[00:31.54]Life ain't always what you think it ought to be no
[00:34.99]Ain't even grey but she buries her baby
[00:38.90]The sharp knife of a short life well
[00:46.35]I've had just enough time
[00:51.03]
[00:52.11]If I die young burry me in satin
[00:55.87]Lay me down on a bed of roses
[00:59.36]Sink me in the river at dawn
[01:03.09]Send me away with the words of a love song
[01:08.38]The sharp knife of a short life well
[01:15.88]I've had just enough time
[01:21.28]
[01:21.79]And I'll be wearing white when I come into your kingdom
[01:26.05]I'm as green as the ring on my little cold finger
[01:29.82]I've never known the loving of a man
[01:33.31]But it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand
[01:37.24]There's a boy here in town says he'll love my forever
[01:41.34]Who would have thought forever could be severed by
[01:45.43]The sharp knife of a short life well
[01:52.85]I've had just enough time
[02:02.57]oh oh oh oh
[02:13.63]
[02:14.27]So put on your best boys and I'll wear my pearls
[02:20.13]What I never did is done
[02:23.95]
[02:24.67]A penny for my thoughts oh no I'll sell them for a dollar
[02:29.49]There worth so much more after I'm a goner
[02:32.79]And maybe then you'll hear the words I been singing
[02:36.73]Funny when your dead how people start listening
[02:42.96]
[02:48.37]If I die young bury me in satin
[02:52.17]Lay me down on a bed of roses
[02:55.73]Sink me in the river at dawn
[02:59.51]Send me away with the words of a love song
[03:03.92]oh oh
[03:05.86]The ballad of a dove
[03:09.27]Go with peace and love
[03:11.76]Gather up your tears keep em in your pocket
[03:15.46]Save them for a time when your really gonna need them oh
[03:19.52]The sharp knife of a short life well
[03:26.79]I've had just enough time
[03:33.76]So put on your best boys and I'll wear my pearls
