If I Were A Carpenter

If I were a carpenter and you were a lady

Would you marry me anyway

Would you have my baby

If a tinker were my trade would you still find me

Carrying the pots I'd made

Following behind me

Save my love through loneliness

Save my love through sorrows

I've given you my onliness

Give me your tomorrows

If I worked my hands in wood

Would you still love me

Answer me babe yes I would

I would put you above me

If I were a miller at a mill wheel grinding

Would you miss your colored blouse

Little girl, your soft sweet shoe shinning

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

And have my baby
