If I Were A Carpenter

If I were a carpenter

And you were a lady

Now would you marry me anyway?

Would you have my baby?

If I take on a tinkers trade,

Would you still find me?

Oh carryin' the pots I made

Followin' closer behind me

Save my love through lonliness

Save my love for sorrow,

Cause I have given you my ownliness,

Give me part of your tomorrow

If I work my hands in wood

Would you still love me?

Ah, answer me babe, yes I would

I'd raise you high above me

If I was a miller at a mill wheel grindin'

Now would you miss your color box?

& your soft shoes shining?

If I were a carpenter & you were a lady

Girl, would you marry me anyway?

I want you have my baby

If I were a carpenter & you were a lady

Now would you marry me anyway?

Won't you have my baby?
