歌詞

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 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 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 holdin' my hand There's a boy here in town who 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 moreaft er I'm a goner And maybe then you'll hear the words I've been singin' Funny when you're dead how people start a-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 Uh 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 you're 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
