If I Were A Carpenter

if i were a carpenter
and you were a lady
now would you marry me anyway
would you have my baby

if i take all the tinkers trade's
would you still find me
oh carrying the parts i made, following close up behind me

save my love through lonelyness, save my love for sorrow
cause i have given you my allness, give me a part of your tomorrow

if i work my hands, would you still love me
now answer me baby yes i would, i would place you i'd love you

if i were a miller at a mill wheel grinding
now would you miss your coloured box
soft shoe shinning

chorus

i were a carpenter
and you were a lady
girl would you marry me anyway
would you have my baby

chorus one more time
