If I die young, bury me in satin, lay me down on a bed of roses
Sing me in the river at dawn, send me away with the words of a love song
Lord, make me a rainbow, I'll shine down on my mother
So know I'm safe with you when she stands under my colors
Life ain't always what you think it ought to be, no, ain't even great
She buries her baby, the sharp knife of a short life
I've had just enough time
If I die young
Bury me in satin, lay me down on a bed of roses
Sing 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
I'll be wearing white
When I come into your kingdom
I'm as green as the rain
Hold my little cold finger
I've never known the loving of a man
He 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
Ooh
So put on your best boys
And I'll wear my pearls
Boy, I've had just enough time
What I never did is done
I pin it for my thoughts, oh no
I'll sell them 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 a-listening

If I die young
Bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sing me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
Oh, oh
The ballad of the dove
Oh, oh
Go a piece of love
Gather up your tears
Keep them in your pocket
Save them for a time
When you're really gonna need them
Oh, a short night
But a short life
I've had just enough time
Yeah
So put on your best boys
And I'll wear my pearls
And the boys will watch
Do my record
będzie
Just one time
Ain't nobody
When I'm in то
Remember
My queen
