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 Lord make me a rainbow, Ill shine down on my mother Shell know Im safe with you when she stands under my colors Oh, and life aint always what you think it ought to be, no Aint even gray, but she buries her baby The sharp knife of a short life Well, Ive 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, Ive had just enough time And Ill be wearing white when I come into your kingdom Im as green as the ring on my little cold finger Ive never known the loving of a man But it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand Theres a boy here in town, says hell love me forever Who would have thought forever could be severed by The sharp knife of a short life Well, Ive had just enough time So put on your best, boys, and Ill wear my pearls What I never did is done A penny for my thoughts, oh no, Ill sell em for a dollar Theyre worth so much more after Im a goner And maybe then youll hear the words I been singing Funny, when youre dead how people start listening 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 ballad of a dove Go with peace and love Gather up your tears, keep em in your pocket Save them for a time when youre really gonna need them, oh The sharp knife of a short life Well, Ive had just enough time So put on your best, boys And Ill wear my pearls
