If I Were A Carpenter lyrics

If I were a carpenter and you were a lady

Would you marry me anyway?


Would you have my baby?



If I worked my hands in wood
I wonder would you still love me?
I say yes, I would, I'll put you above me



That's what I want you to say

Would you save my love from sorrow, if you would

And would you save my love from loneliness,


I give you my onlyness, girl and all of my tomorrows



If a tinker were my trade, would you still find me?

Carrying the pots and the pans that I made,
Walking along the highway

That long lonely highway





If I was a carpenter, and you were a lady

And I was just a carpenter,
Just a carpenter
Instead of a rock and roll star


A carpenter

A carpenter
