Hi guys! Here's my latest. Thanks for the request, I really like this song! I tried to relax and just have a lot of fun with this one. What do you think?
-------------------------------------------------------------
IF I DIE YOUNG

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 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 lovin' 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 my 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 them for a dollar
They're worth so much more after I'm a goner
And maybe then you'll hear the words I been sayin'
Funny when your 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 your 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

  • you sing really well

  • wonderful voice...

  • Your really a slow singer I don't think ur the right for maybe a talent show and can u sing louder

  • I think your own style is to sing slower and its awesome so dont listen to the other comments:D

  • It sounds like trying to make it like it will be on the princess and the frog

  • you sing so slow it makes me nervous

  • sing faster but your still good

  • Everyone saying it's too slow. I think she meant to be a bit slower then the original! she puts her own stamp on the song instead of the same old copy cat versions! Keep going girl. You have a lovely voice!

  • awesome! just a little slow! :)

  • sing faster
