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 loneliness,	
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?
