If I Were A Carpenter

If I Were A Carpenter - King Jammy

If I were a carpenter

And you were a lady

Would you marry me anyway

Would you have my baby

If I were a miller

At a mill wheel grinding

Would you miss your lover man

Your soft shoe shining

Oh sweet baby

If a tinker were my trade

Would you still find me

Answer me yes I would

Come give me your tomorrow

If I were a carpenter

And you were a lady

Would you marry me anyway

Would you have my baby

Oh baby

Save my love to loneliness

Save my love to sorrow

I'm given you my loneliness

Come give me your tomorrow

Yeah oh baby

If I were a carpenter

And you were a lady

Would you marry me anyway

Would you have my baby

If I were a miller

At a mill wheel grinding

Would you miss your lover man

Your soft shoe shining

Save my love to loneliness

Save my love to sorrow

I'm given you my loneliness

Come give me your tomorrow

Oh yeah

If I were a carpenter

And you were a lady

Would you marry me anyway

Would you have my baby

If I were a miller

At a mill wheel grinding

Would you miss your lover man

Your soft shoe shining

Your soft shoe shining oh baby
