If I Die Young (Pop Version)

If I Die Young -KMAC
Lord make me a rainbow
Ill shine down on my mother
Shell know Im safe with you
When she stands under my colors
Life aint always what
You think it ought to be no
Aint even grey
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
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
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 them 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
People start listening
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 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
