if i were a carpenter

• (bkz: if i were a rich man)
• if i were a carpenter
  and you were a lady,
  would you marry me anyway?
  would you have my baby?
  
  if a tinker were my trade
  would you still find me,
  carrin' the pots i made,
  followin' behind me.
  
  save my love through loneliness,
  save my love for sorrow,
  i'm given you my onliness,
  come give your tomorrow.
  
  if i worked my hands in wood,
  would you still love me?
  answer me babe, "yes i would,
  i'll put you above me."
  
  if i were a miller
  at a mill wheel grinding,
  would you miss your color box,
  and your soft shoe shining?
  
  if i were a carpenter
  and you were a lady,
  would you marry me anyway?
  would you have my baby?
  would you marry anyway?
  would you have my baby?
