Waylon Jennings
If I Were A Carpenter
[Verse 1]
If I were a carpenter and you were a lady
Would you marry me anyway would you have my baby
If a thinker were my trade would you still find me
Carrying the pots I made following behind me

[Chorus]
Save my love through sorrow
Save your love through lonely
You can have my tomorrow
Just love me only

[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
If I worked my hands in wood would you still love me
Answer me say yes I would I place you above me
If I were a miller with a mill wheel grinding
Would you miss your pretty clothes and your soft shoes shining?

[Chorus]

[Instrumental]

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