If I Were A Carpenter (with June Carter Cash)

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 was my trade

Would I still find you

I'd be carrying the pots you made

Following behind you

Save your love through loneliness

Save your love through sorrow

I gave you my onlyness

Give me your tomorrowIf I were a miller

And a mill wheel grinding

Would you miss your colored blouse

And your soft shoes shining?If you were a miller

And a mill wheel grinding

I'd not miss my colored blouse

And my soft shoes shiningSave your love through loneliness

Save your love through sorrow

I gave you my onlyness

Give me your tomorrowIf I worked my hands on wood

Would you still love me?

I'd answer you yes I would

And would you not be above me?If I were a carpenter

And you were a lady

I'd marry you anyway

I'd have your babySave your love through loneliness

Save your love through sorrow

I gave you my onlyness

Give me your tomorrow
