If I Die Young (Pop Mix)

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 ohLord 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 sheburies her babyThe sharp knife of a short life

Oh well, I've had just enough timeIf 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 songThe sharp knife of a short life

Oh well, I've had just enough timeAnd I'll be wearing white when I come into your kingdom

As green as the ring on my little cold finger

I've never known the loving of a man

But it sure felt nice when he was holding my handThere'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

Oh well, I've had just enough timeSo 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 more after I'm a goner

And maybe then you'll hear the words I've been singing

Funny, when you're dead how people start listen'nIf 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 songThe 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 them,

The sharp knife of a short life oh

Well, I've had just enough time

So put on your best boys

And I'll wear my pearls.
