If I Were a Carpenter

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 would have your baby

i'd marry you anyway

i would have your baby

save my love through loneliness

save my love through sorrow

i gave you my loneliness

give me your tomorrow

if i were a miller at a mill wheel grinding

would you miss your pretty dress

and your soft shoes shining

if you were a miller

at a mill wheel grinding

i wouldn't miss my pretty dress

on my soft shoes shining

i wouldn't miss my pretty dress

on my soft shoes shining

save my love through loneliness

save my love through sorrow

i gave you my loneliness

even your tomorrow

if i take her where my trade

could i still find you

yeah i'd be carrying the parts

you made following behind you

yeah i'd be carrying the parts

you made following behind you

save my love through loneliness

save my love through sorrow

i gave you my loneliness

give me your tomorrow

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 would have your baby

yeah i'd marry you anyway

i would have your baby
