|
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, following behind me
|
|
Save my love through loneliness
|
Save my love for sorrow
|
I've given you my onliness
|
Come and give me your tomorrows
|
|
If I worked my hands in wood, would you still love me
|
Answer me, babe, yes, I would, I'd put you above me
|
If I were a miller at a mill wheel grinding
|
Would you miss your colored box, your soft shoes shining?
