[音樂] The Band Perry - If I Die Young

這首歌是由之前介紹過的美國鄉村音樂樂團 The Band Perry 所演唱的, 發行於 2010 年, 在美國告示牌排行榜最高曾經衝到冠軍寶座, 可以說是他們的代表作之一, 也要恭喜他們入圍了2012葛萊美獎的最佳新人

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

Uh oh, uh oh 

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 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, oh 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 holdin' my hand 
there's a boy here in town says that he'll love me forever 
Whoever thought forever could be severed by

The sharp knife of a short life oh 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've been singing 
funny when you're dead how people start listenin'

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

Uh oh (uh, oh)
The ballad of a dove (uh, oh)
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 'em, oh 

The sharp knife of a short life, oh well
I've had just enough time

So put on your best boys and I'll wear my pearls
