If I die Young - Lauren Alaina (Studio Version)

On Screen Lyrics ;) Enjoy
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
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, 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 who 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 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 singin'
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 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

Her voice is perfect for this song.

[@BlueEyedCubTN]

Lauren, I sat so many times when you sang at Magoo's in East Ridge. I told you one day when you were depressed to smile anyway. You were going to be a huge star one day, and girls everywhere were going to want to be you. I wish I could see you one more time, to say "I told you so."

@radiowwww It's a cover. This song is originally written and composed by The Band Perry.

[@taylorraenmusic]

I cried when she lost.

[@lagatitadelperreo07]

i get goosebumps when i listen to her! :-)

[@sccuttic]

I didn't like this version at first but as the song went on I started to like it more and now I like it more than the original. The Band Perry's version is great, don't get me wrong, but I think Lauren took the song and put a new twist on it and made it even better!

[@kathleennikka1143]

iloveu Lauren :)

[@shaya2220]

[@sharondecker]

Omg this is soo amazing!

[@rtizinc411]

she sounds better live which is ALWAYS a good thing!

[@finsomfiin]

wow! very good!

[@Nvd1987]

Pretty good cover!! Good job!

[@alexisfayye2915]

Love this version!!!

[@sylphide77]

Lauren destroys this song. She totally owns it.

[@YummyCupcakification]

She is way better than the real version no; offence @TheBandPerry; but it is soo much better. She makes it come alive more, and it is really amazing.

[@justinchester0018]

Lauren Alaina, runner up American Idol Season 10.

[@justinefiona94]

@B24LOL Now-one can ever be better than the original artist of a song.

[@7474jd]

Love the nightcore version better than The Band Perry's and I kept hearing all these growl type notes and realized it wasn't from the original. Really like the way she pushes or "projects" or whatever it's called with certain words.

[@somethingchaotic101]

goosebumps

[@gigi102233]

Love this better than the original

[@orlaghmariee]
