Lyrics

If I were a carpenter And you were a lady Would you marry me anyway? Would you have my baby? If you were a carpenter And I were a lady I'd you marry you anyway I'd you have your baby If a tinker was my trade Would I still find you? I'd be carryin' the pots you made Followin' behind you Save your love through loneliness Save your love through sorrow I gave you my onlyness Gimme your tomorrow If I were a miller And a mill wheel grindin' Would you miss your colored blouse And your soft shoe shinin'? If you were a miller At a mill wheel grindin' I'd not miss my colored blouse And my soft shoe shinin'? Save your love through loneliness Save your love through sorrow I gave you my onlyness Gimme your tomorrow If I worked my hands in wood Would you still love me? I'd answer you, "Yes I would" And would you not be above me? If I were a carpenter And you were a lady I'd you marry you anyway I'd have your baby Save your love through loneliness Save your love through sorrow I gave you my onlyness Gimme your tomorrow
