If I were a carpenter
And you were a lady
Would you marry me anyway?
Would you have my baby?If you were a carpenter
And I were a lady
I'd marry you anyway
I'd have your babyIf a tinker were my trade
Would you still find me?
I'll be carryin' the pots you made
Followin' behind youSave my love through loneliness
Save my love to sorrow
I'm givin' you my only-ness
Give me your tomorrowIf I were a miller
At a mill wheel grindin'
I wouldn't miss my pretty dress
And my soft shoe shiningIf I were a carpenter
If I were a lady
Would you marry me anyway?
Yes, and I'd have your babySave my love through loneliness
Save my love to sorrow
I'm givin' you my only-ness
Give me your tomorrowIf I were a carpenter
And you were a lady
I'd marry you anyway
I'd marry you anywaySave my love through loneliness
Save my love to sorrow
I'm givin' you my only-ness
Give me your tomorrowSave my love through loneliness
Save my love to sorrow
I'm givin' you my only-ness
Give me your tomorrowIf I were a carpenter
And you were a lady
I'd marry you anyway
Would you have my baby?
I'd marry you anyway
And I'd have your babyIf I were a carpenter
If you were a carpenter
I'd marry you anyway
