If I Were a Carpenter Lyrics


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

Johnny Cash (born J.R. Cash, February 26, 1932 – September 12, 2003) was an influential American country and rock and roll singer and songwriter. Cash was the husband of country singer and songwriter June Carter Cash (June 23, 1929 – May 15, 2003). Cash was known for his deep and distinctive voice, the boom-chick-a-boom or "freight train" sound of his Tennessee Three backing band, and his dark clothing and demeanor, which earned him the nickname "The Man in Black." He started all his concerts with the simple introduction "Hello, I'm Johnny Cash."
