IF I WERE A CARPENTER - Johnny Rivers
Se eu fosse carpinteiro
(T. Hardin) ' 1972

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
Carrying the pots I made
Following behind me?

Save my love through loneliness
Save my love through sorrow
I've given you my onliness
Come give me your tomorrow

If I worked my hands in wood
Would you still love me?
Answer me, baby, yes, I would
I'd put you above me

If I were a miller at a mill wheel grinding
Would you miss that pretty dress
And those soft shoes shinin'?
Save my love through loneliness
Save my love through sorrow
I've given you my onliness
Come give me your tomorrow

If I worked my hands in wood
Would you still love me?
Tell me, baby, yes, I would
I'd put you above me

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?
Would you have that baby?
