My wife passed at 42 yrs old 20 yrs of marriage. This song came on the radio when my son n I were going to get fitted for suits for the funeral. I had to pull over.
This song makes me cry. When I was being bullied I would go to a corner and sing this song. Then finally someone heard me and everything changed. Band Perry you are my inspiration. Love you Band Perry💖💖
I've heard this song many times, but for some reason seeing this video made me think of my cousin's grandson, dead at 18. He had a lot of living, loving, and laughing ahead of him. RIP Alex!
Beautiful performance, I love this song. I was in Mexico on holiday and heard the sad news my friend committed suicide and this was playing on someone’s Bluetooth speaker, it made me cry especially the absolutely violin part. RIP James you are missed so much ❤️
Your concert at FIREKEEPERS Casino in Michigan last night was excellent. You came outta the gate jamming. Your music carries a very special message. Stay blessed...Terri
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 colours, 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 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 Go with peace and love Gather up your tears, keep 'em in your pocket Save 'em for a time when your really gonna need 'em 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
Love your band to the utmost!!! Keep on bringin' in the new songs... I love to workout with your music!!! Thank you, Velva from Santa Fe, N. Mexico 8-3-16
The band perry We wanted to write a song about making the most of whatever time you're given - whether it's two years, twenty years or two hundred. We really have gotten to live and love at our young ages. 'If I Die Young,' for us, is about if it all ends at this moment, look at what we've gotten to do. Whatever time we're given will be absolutely enough as long as we make the most of it."
I see a bunch of people saying it sounds terrible well I think she sounds just as good as she looks!!! She is just soo precious what I wouldn't do for her. Lol.
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, oh-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 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 '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 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 Oh-oh, oh-oh The ballad of a dove 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 time So put on your best, boys, and I'll wear my pearls
Y'all are my favorite band and this is my favorite song of y'all's and I may get to see y'all in Tuskahoma , at the big fair there they have every year!
I Just Adore Them And Their Songs/Singin! 💖🙂 Folks Are Pointin Out Her 'Flaws' In This One Particular Performance.. Her Voice Is Kinda Raspy AnyWay. Imo, If One Will Just Listen to Each Individual Performance On This Song(As Well As the Others), And Stop Comparin Them to Her Other Ones, She's Nothin Less Than Just AweSomely FlawLess In Each One. 🎶🎤🎻.🎶 🙂

Underrated - fiddle player with the solo. He was really good! What a beautiful live performance.
The soul this girl sings with is just amazing so much heart and feeling.She really knows how to deliver a message.

I got goosebumps when I watched this performance. true talent, beautiful song. huge respect.
Family harmonies are the best! Kimberly's voice is amazing! Love her!
Dang I miss Leno and Letterman. Simpler times, back when the late night shows were actually worth watching.
the sharp knife of a short life 😭😭
this song is so close to my heart...
I love The Band Perry so much 💝💝💝💝💝💝💝
My husband thinks he's funny for changing that line to "the sharp knife if a short wife" as I'm 5'1" and feisty.🙄
Kimberly is always singing her heart out, amazing voice.
I can’t believe I just heard the Band Perry a few weeks ago. Unbelievable!
The penny for your thoughts lines are what really got me. They really are worth more when your a goner and inherently become "dollar thoughts."
Wow, that woman has an amazing voice!
And she’s beautiful and sweet!
I love that the bassist is in a country band, but still looks like he could be in Davis Bowie's band circa 1973.
One of my favorite songs. Seeing it live is nice!
I love this girl so much..her voice..her smile..endlessly gorgeous...💘🌷💘
Not a country music fan but one of the best songs. Ive heard in years!
It sure is refreshing to see these young muscians playing instruments and putting out some good music. Well done!
Your concert at FIREKEEPERS Casino in Michigan last night was excellent. You came outta the gate jamming. Your music carries a very special message. Stay blessed...Terri
Life's a puzzle 🧩, but sometimes the pieces just don't fit the way you hoped, leaving you with a sense of uncertainty and unmet expectations.
Amen to that brother
The ocean side versions are spectacular. This is a great band. Love ' The Band Perry '
super fan of Kalamazoo Michigan USA *
This is what's called good lyrics💕 :')
AWESOME VOICE. Beautiful woman. When i have my Grand Resort Ballroom the Band Perry will be singing there. Word
2 Years later and you still have the voice
I miss the Letterman show so much.... lol. I grew up on it. Love this performance!
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 colours, 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
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
Go with peace and love
Gather up your tears, keep 'em in your pocket
Save 'em for a time when your really gonna need 'em 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
I love you Joshua Simpson, and Ill miss you forever. This song is for your Mother. Love yours forever, Jayme.
Wow! Great live performance, the articulation of the vocals was amazing Kim
2018 baby. This song just hits hits hits. I wish I only had so much more to listen to from The Band Perry.
Love your band to the utmost!!! Keep on bringin' in the new songs... I love to workout with your music!!! Thank you, Velva from Santa Fe, N. Mexico 8-3-16
How are you ? Its been 6 years
This is what a True Classic is......
3 weeks ago i lost my 4 month old niece and every time I hear this song it makes me think of her and the life she lived here 3
This literally gives me goosebumps
Lovely changes to the melody for a live version, didn't detract, really beautiful
sounds really good live
RICHARD actually she doesn't. I don't know a lot about singing, but she must've had a cold or something. This didn't sound too good
that is better than radio all day , !!!
This should be the song to represent childhood cancer awareness. I don't know the background, but it sure fits.

this is one of my fav song and I always cry listening this. so beautiful.
love this ,you guys did your best work ever
that what we call a true talent... not only in studio
Why is no one talking about how smooth that violin part was?? 🎻
It's called fiddling. Violin music is an entirely different genre, and yes I know they're the same instrument.
Lyrics made me sad and cry. Love this song.😥😥😭😭😭
She always looks so classy and beautiful.
I come here everytime I am sad. Until the day I will give up.
As do I missing my wife.
If I die young I am going to heaven
Nice to hear this song live.
Changing her eyebrow style made her bloom incredibly.
I love that song and you sung REALLY good
I love this song more than any other song
What a strong song and crual lyrics WAW
i love this band..
Big thanks for this song. Serbia love you guys :)
just incredible...
That's a DYNAMITE performance....sooooo good.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE this song!
This song allways makes me cry
Sad Song years ago. Could not imagine losing a Daughter.
I love this song so so much
if i die young...such a beautiful song
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, oh-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

Well, I've had just enough time
So put on your best, boys, and I'll wear my pearls

What guitar is Kimberley playing? Is it a McPherson? Beautiful guitar
This song has beautiful lyrics
😍 gorgeous Kimberly 🌹 true talented country artist ,love this song ,Band Perry fan for life ,👍
Sharp knife of a short life, Simal Akus where are you . Miss u terribly
Those arms!😍 Slayyy gurrl
I'm here for her hair 😍😍.. and the song too of course😋😘😍😂🤗
Awesome song awesome voices ❤️
Thank you
Hi Thankyou .
Love this song so much😭😭❤️❤️
Really good musicians
Daddy misses you Beathany.🖤🖤
The violin player is brilliant. I've watched him on a number of their songs. Is he a part of the group (as in partner) or just a paid musician?
Does anyone know who is the violin player?
Jason Fitz. He works for ESPN now
Wrong genre. That is fiddling not violin playing. Yes it is the same instrument, but it is two different styles of music.
Awesome song
Amo demais essa música 😍
Nice
Such an adorable song
Talking About The Hole Show On David Letterman ,This Was The Best Late Night In A Long Time
