If I Were a Carpenter

If I were a carpenter
And you were the lady
Would you marry me anyway?
Would you have my baby?

If a tinker were my trade
Would you still find me
Carryin' the pots I made
Followin' behind me?

Save my love through loneliness
Save my love through sorrow
I'm givin' you my onliness
Give me your tomorrow

If I worked my hands at wood
Would you still love me?
Answer me, babe
"Yes, I would, I'd put you above me"

If I were a miller
At a mill wheel grinding
Would you miss your glory-box?
Oh, your soft shoes shining

Save my love through loneliness
Save my love through sorrow
I'm givin' you my onliness
Come give' me your tomorrow

If I were a carpenter
And you were a lady
Would you marry me anyway?
Would you have my baby?

Would you marry me anyway?
Would you have my baby?
If I were a carpenter
If I were a carpenter
A would you,a would you
,would you have my
Baby

Baby
