Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the (2)__________ of a love song
(Oh oh oh oh)
Lord make me a rainbow
I'll shine (3)________ 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

And I'll be wearing white
When I (4)________ into your kingdom
I'm as green as the ring on my little cold finger
I've (5)__________ known the (6)____________ of a man
But it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand
There's a boy (7)________ in town says he'll love me forever
Who would have thought forever could be severed by

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 (8)____________ 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
(Oh oh)
The ballad of a dove
(Oh oh)
Go with peace and love
Gather up your tears, (9)________ 'em in your pocket
Save them for a time
When your really gonna (10)________ 'em (oh)
The sharp knife of a short life, well
I've had just enough time
So put on your best boys
