If I Were a Carpenter Songtext
von Kevin Spacey

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
Carryin′ the pots I made
Followin' behind me?

Save my love through loneliness
Save my love through sorrow
I′m given you my oneliness
Give me 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 me anyway, and have my baby?
