If I were a carpenter
|
And you were a lady
|
Now would you marry me anyway?
|
Would you have my baby?
|
|
If I take on a tinkers trade,
|
Would you still find me?
|
Oh carryin' the pots I made
|
Followin' closer behind me
|
|
Save my love through lonliness
|
Save my love for sorrow,
|
Cause I have given you my ownliness,
|
Give me part of your tomorrow
|
|
If I work my hands in wood
|
Would you still love me?
|
Ah, answer me babe, yes I would
|
I'd raise you high above me
|
|
If I was a miller at a mill wheel grindin'
|
Now would you miss your color box?
|
& your soft shoes shining?
|
|
If I were a carpenter & you were a lady
|
Girl, would you marry me anyway?
|
I want you have my baby
|
|
If I were a carpenter & you were a lady
|
Now would you marry me anyway?
|
Won't you have my baby?
|
