　　The Band Perry - If I Die Young

　　Lyrics：

　　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

　　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

　　Oh, and life ain't always what you think it ought to be, no

　　Ain't even gray, 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

　　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 'em for a dollar

　　They're worth so much more after I'm a goner

　　And maybe then you'll hear the words I been singing

　　Funny, when you're dead how people start listening

　　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 ballad of a dove

　　Go with peace and love

　　Gather up your tears, keep 'em in your pocket

　　Save them for a time when you're really gonna need them, oh

　　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
