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 I worked my hands in wood

I wonder would you still love me?

I say yes, I would, I'll put you above me

That's what I want you to sayAnd would you save my love from loneliness

Would you save my love from sorrow, if you would

I give you my onlyness, girl and all of my tomorrowsIf a tinker were my trade, would you still find me?

Carrying the pots and the pans that I made

Walking along the highway

That long lonely highway
