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 meSave my love through loneliness

Save my love through sorrows

I've given you my onliness

Give me your tomorrowsIf I worked my hands in wood

Would you still love me?

Answer me babe, "Yes I would"

I would put you above meIf I were a miller, yeah

At a mill wheel grinding

Would you miss your colored box

Little girl, your soft sweet shoe shinningIf 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
