[00:00.00]If I Die Young -KMAC
[00:12.901]Lord make me a rainbow
[00:14.461]I'll shine down on my mother
[00:16.180]She'll know I'm safe with you
[00:17.950]When she stands under my colors
[00:20.989]Life ain't always what
[00:22.79]You think it ought to be no
[00:24.109]Ain't even grey
[00:25.109]But she buries her baby
[00:27.679]The sharp knife of a short life well
[00:34.797]I've had just enough time
[00:39.667]If I die young bury me in satin
[00:42.877]Lay me down on a bed of roses
[00:46.207]Sink me in the river at dawn
[00:49.826]Send me away with the words of a love Song
[00:54.626]The sharp knife of a short life well
[01:01.425]I've had just enough time
[01:19.415]And I'll be wearing white
[01:21.455]When I come into your kingdom
[01:23.455]I'm as green as the ring
[01:25.195]On my little cold finger
[01:26.895]I've never known the loving of a man
[01:30.135]But it sure felt nice
[01:31.955]When he was holding my hand
[01:33.505]There's a boy here in town says
[01:35.494]He'll love me forever
[01:37.424]Who would have thought forever
[01:39.503]Could be severed by
[01:41.432]The sharp knife of a short life well
[01:48.122]I've had just enough time
[01:52.961]If I die young bury me in satin
[01:56.221]Lay me down on a bed of roses
[01:59.551]Sink me in the river at dawn
[02:03.51]Send me away with the words of a love Song
[02:08.41]The sharp knife of a short life well
[02:14.670]I've had just enough time
[02:33.775]So put on your best boys
[02:35.435]And I'll wear my pearls
[02:37.365]What I never did is done
[02:41.275]A penny for my thoughts
[02:42.805]Oh no I'll sell them for a dollar
[02:45.435]They're worth so much more after I'm a Goner
[02:48.414]And maybe then you'll
[02:50.23]Hear the words I been singing
[02:52.193]Funny when you're dead
[02:55.723]People start listening
[02:57.193]The ballad of a dove
[03:00.153]Go with peace and love
[03:02.203]Gather up your tears keep 'em in your Pocket
[03:05.532]Save them for a time
[03:06.832]When your really gonna need them
[03:14.651]If I die young bury me in satin
[03:18.110]Lay me down on a bed of roses
[03:21.519]Sink me in the river at dawn
[03:24.579]Send me away with the words of a love Song

If I Die Young -KMAC
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
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 loving of a man
But it 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
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
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 them for a dollar
They're worth so much more after I'm a Goner

Save them for a time
When your really gonna need them
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
