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 gonner
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
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
