If I were a carpenter And 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 tinker's trade Would you still find me Oh, carrin' the pots I made (carrying the pots I made) Close up behind me? (following behind me) Save my love through loneliness Save my love for sorrow 'Cause I have given you my onliness Give me part of your tomorrow If I worked my hands in wood (yes I would, babe, to keep your love, babe) Would you still love me? Now answer me babe, "yes, I would (yes I would, babe, to keep your love, babe) Place you high above me" If I were a miller At a mill wheel grinding Now, would you miss your color box (would you miss your color box?) Your soft shoes are shining (and your soft shoe shining?) If I were a carpenter And you were a lady Would you marry me anyway (would you marry me anyway?) Would you have my baby? (would you have my baby?) If I were a carpenter And you were a lady Would you marry anyway Would you have my baby?
