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 love me?
Carrying the pots I made,
hollowing behind me
Save my love through loneliness,
save my love for sorrow
I've given you my onliness,
come and give me your tomorrow
If I worked my hands in wood,
would you still love me?
Answer me, baby, yes I would,
I've got you above me
If I were a miller,
at a mill we'll grind the heat
Would you miss your colored blouse,
your soft shoe shiny?
Save my love for loneliness,
save my love for sorrow
I've given you my only nest,
gonna give you your tomorrow
Save my love through loneliness
Save my love for sorrow
I've given you my onliness
Come and get me your tomorrow
Save my love through loneliness
Save my love for sorrow
I've given you my onliness
Come and get me your tomorrow
Come and give me your tomorrow
Come and give me your tomorrow
Come and give me your tomorrow
