If I Were a Carpenter lyrics

by

Johnny Cash


[Verse 1: Johnny Cash, June Carter Cash]
If I were a carpenter
And 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 your baby
If a tinker was my trade
Would I still find you?
I'd be carrying the pots you made
Following behind you

[Chorus: Johnny Cash & June Carter Cash, Johnny Cash]
Save your love through loneliness
Save your love through sorrow
I gave you my onliness
Give me your tomorrow

[Verse 2: Johnny Cash, June Carter Cash]
If I were a miller
At a mill wheel grinding
Would you miss your color blouse
And your soft shoe shining?
If you were a miller
At a mill wheel grinding
I'd not miss my color blouse
And my soft shoe shining
[Chorus: Johnny Cash & June Carter Cash, Johnny Cash]
Save your love through loneliness
Save your love through sorrow
I gave you my onliness
Give me your tomorrow

[Verse 3: Johnny Cash, June Carter Cash]
If I worked my hands in wood
Would you still love me?
I'd answered you, "Yes I would"
And would you not be above me
If I were a carpenter
And you were a lady
I'd marry you anyway
I'd have your baby

[Chorus: Johnny Cash & June Carter Cash, Johnny Cash]
Save your love through loneliness
Save your love through sorrow
I gave you my onliness
Give me your tomorrow
