[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
