The Band Perry - If I Die Young
[00:00.82] If I die young, bury me in satin
[00:04.42] Lay me down on a bed of roses
[00:07.93] Sink me in a river at dawn
[00:11.57] Send me away with the words of a love song
[00:17.44] Uh oh, uh oh
[00:22.54] Lord make me a rainbow, I'll shine down on my mother
[00:26.43] She'll know I'm safe with you when she stands under my colors, oh,
[00:30.82] And life ain't always what you think it ought to be, no
[00:35.06] Ain't even grey, but she buries her baby
[00:38.82] The sharp knife of a short life, oh well
[00:46.22] I've had just enough time
[00:52.10] If I die young, bury me in satin
[00:55.75] Lay me down on a bed of roses
[00:59.38] Sink me in the river at dawn
[01:02.97] Send me away with the words of a love song
[01:08.24] The sharp knife of a short life, oh well
[01:15.49] I've had just enough time
[01:21.25] And I'll be wearing white, when I come into your kingdom
[01:25.73] I'm as green as the ring on my little cold finger,
[01:29.22] I've never known the lovin' of a man
[01:33.09] But it sure felt nice when he was holdin' my hand,
[01:36.59] There's a boy here in town, says he'll love me forever,
[01:40.85] Who would have thought forever could be severed by
[01:44.84] The sharp knife of a short life, oh well?
[01:52.33] I've had just enough time
[02:02.80] .
[02:13.47] So put on your best, boys, and I'll wear my pearls
[02:18.46] What I never did is done
[02:22.46] A penny for my thoughts, oh, no, I'll sell 'em for a dollar
[02:27.36] They're worth so much more after I'm a goner
[02:30.60] And maybe then you'll hear the words I been singin'
[02:34.86] Funny when you're dead how people start listenin'
[02:41.60] .
[02:46.84] If I die young, bury me in satin
[02:50.61] Lay me down on a bed of roses
[02:54.36] Sink me in the river at dawn
[02:57.98] Send me away with the words of a love song
[03:02.49] Uh oh (uh, oh)
[03:04.23] The ballad of a dove (uh, oh)
[03:07.72] Go with peace and love
[03:09.99] Gather up your tears, keep 'em in your pocket
[03:13.72] Save 'em for a time when you're really gonna need 'em, oh
[03:17.98] The sharp knife of a short life, oh well
[03:25.23] I've had just enough time
[03:31.48] So put on your best, boys, and I'll wear my pearls
