Bobby Darin If I Were A Carpenter lyrics

If I Were A Carpenter
Bobby Darin
Words & Music: Tim Hardin

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?
