Lyrics

If I were a carpenter And you were a lady Now would you marry me anyway? Would you have my baby? If I take on a tinkers trade Would you still find me? Oh carryin' the pots I made Followin' closer 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 Would you still love me? Ah, answer me babe, yes I would I'd raise you high above me If I was a miller at a mill wheel grindin' Now would you miss your color box? & your soft shoes shining? If I were a carpenter & you were a lady Girl, would you marry me anyway? I want 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?
