If I Were a Carpenter - Dolly Parton/Joe Nichols

If I were a carpenter

You were a lady

Would you marry me anyway

Would you have my baby

If you were a carpenter

And I were a lady

I'd marry you anyway

I'd have you baby

If a tinker were my trade

Would you still find me

I'll be carrying the pots you made

Following behind you

Save my love through loneliness

Save my love to sorrow

I'm given you my loneliness

Give me your tomorrow

If I were a miller

At a mill wheel grinding

I would miss my pretty dress

And your soft shoe shining

If I were a carpenter

If I were a lady

Would you marry me anyway

Yes I'd have you baby

Save my love through loneliness

Save my love to sorrow

I'm given you my loneliness

Give me your tomorrow

If I were a carpenter

And you were a lady

I'd marry you anyway

I'd marry you anyway

Save my love through loneliness

Save my love to sorrow

I'm given you my loneliness

Give me your tomorrow

Save my love through loneliness

Save my love to sorrow

I'm given you my loneliness

Give me your tomorrow

If I were a carpenter

And you were a lady

I'd marry you anyway

Would you have my baby

I'd marry you anyway

And I'd have you baby

If I were a carpenter

If you were a carpenter

I'd marry you anyway
