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 a tinker were my trade
Would you still find me
Carrying the pots I made
Following behind me?
Save my love for sorrow
Save my love for lonely
I've given you my tomorrows
Love me only!
If I worked my hands in wood
Would you still love
Answer me quick..

Tim I could
I'd put you above me
If I were a miller
At a millwheel grinding
Would miss your colored blouse
your soft shoes a shining
Save my love for loneliness
Save my love for sorrow
I've given you my onlyness
Please give me your tomorrows
If I were a carpenter
And you were a lady
Would you marry me anyway
Would you have my baby?
