[ with Diane McCall ]

|
If I were a carpenter and you were a lady
|
Would you marry me anyway would you have my baby
|
If you worked your hands in wood and if you'd ask me
|
I'd answer you baby yes I would I'd place you above me
|
|
Save my love through loneliness save my love through sorrow
|
I've given you my ownliness so give me your tomorrow
|
[ ac.guitar - steel ]
|
If I were a miller at a mill wheel grinding
|
Would you miss your pretty clothes and your soft shoes shining
|
And if a thinker were your trade you'd still find me
|
I'd be carrying the pots you've made and following behind you
|
|
Save my love through loneliness...
|
If I were a carpenter and you were a lady
|
Would you marry me anyway would you have my baby
|
