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
And your soft shoes shining

If I were a carpenter
And you were a lady
Girl, would you marry me anyway
Would you have my baby

If I were a carpenter
And you were a lady
Now would you marry me anyway
Won't you have my baby.
