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 baby
|
If 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 onliness give me your tomorrow
|
|
If I were a miller at a mill wheel grinding
|
Would you miss your colored blouse and your soft shoe shining
|
If you were a miller at a mill wheel grinding
|
I'd not miss my colored blouse and my soft shoe shining
|
Save your love through loneliness...
|
|
If I worked my hands in 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 baby
|
Save your love through loneliness...
