If I Were A Carpenter

(Ah Ah)

If I were a carpenter & you were a lady

Now would you marry me anyway? (would you marry me anyway)

Would you have my baby? (would you have my baby)

If I take on a tinkers trade, would you still find me?

Oh carryin' the pots I made (carryin' the pots I made)

Followin' closer behind me (followin' 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 (yes I work my hands in wood)

Would you still love me?

Ah, answer me babe, yes I would

(Yes I would babe anyway)

I'd raise you high above me



If I was a miller at a mill wheel grindin'

Now would you miss your color box?

(would you miss your color box)

& your soft shoes shining? (& your soft shoes shining)

If I were a carpenter & you were a lady

Girl, would you marry me anyway? (would you marry me anyway)

Want you have my baby? (would 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?
