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 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 carryin' the pot you made, followin' behind you
 Save your love through loneliness, save your love through sorrow
 I gave you my onlyness, give me your tomorrow
 If I were a miller at a mill wheel grinding
 Would you miss your colored blouse and your soft shoe shinin'?
 If you were a miller at a mill wheel grinding
 I'd not miss my colored blouse and my soft shoe shinin'
 Save your love through loneliness, save your love through sorrow
 I gave you my onliness, give me your tomorrow
 If 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, save your love through sorrow
 I gave you my onliness, give me your tomorrow
