If I Were a Carpenter Liedtext

If I were a carpenter
And you were a lady,
Would you marry me anyway?
Would you have my baby?
 
If a tinker were my trade
would you still find me,
Carrying the pots I made,
Following behind me.
 
Save my love through loneliness,
Save my love for sorrow,
I'm given you my onliness,
Come give your tomorrow.
 
If I worked my hands in wood,
Would you still love me?
Answer me babe, "Yes I would,
I'll put you above me."
 
If I were a miller
at a mill wheel grinding,
would you miss your color box,
and your soft shoe shining?
 
If I were a carpenter
and you were a lady,
Would you marry me anyway?
Would you have my baby?
Would you marry anyway?
Would you have my baby?
