If I Were A Boy Lyrics - Glee Cast

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 oughta 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 says he'll love me forever 

Photos 

Who would have thought forever could be severed by 

The sharp knife of a short life, 

Well I've had just enough (time) 

Ooh yeah 

Ooh whoa 

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

The sharp knife of a short life 

Well I've had just enough 

So put on your best boys 

And I'll wear my pearls
