If I Were A Carpenter

[Chorus]
If I were a carpenter and you were a lady
Would you marry me anyway?
Would you have my baby?

[Verse 1]
If I were a miller and the mill should grind me
Would you miss your lover man?
Your soft shoe shiner, yes
Oh sweet, baby

[Verse 2]
If a tinker were my trade would you still find me?
Absolutely, yes I would
Come give me your tomorrow

[Chorus]
If I were a carpenter and you were a lady
Would you marry me anyway?
Would you have my baby?
Well, well
Oh baby

[Verse 3]
See my love through loneliness
See my love through sorrow
I'm giving you my onliness...
Come give me your tomorrow, yes
Oh baby
Mhmm mhmm hmm
Well, well, well

[Chorus]
If I were a carpenter and you were a lady
Would you marry me anyway?
Would you have my babies?

[Verse 1]
If I were a miller and the mill should grind me
Would you miss your lover man?
Your soft shoe shiner

[Verse 3]
See my love through loneliness
See my love through sorrow
I'm giving you my onliness...
Come give me your tomorrow
Oh yeah yeah
Well, well, well

[Chorus]
If I were a carpenter and you were a lady
Would you marry me anyway?
Would you have my babies?
Oh babies

[Verse 1]
If I were a miller and the mill should grind me
Would you miss your lover man?
Your soft shoe shiner
Well, well

[Outro]
Your soft shoe shiner, oh baby
Your soft shoe shiner
