Songtexte If I Were Carpenter - Swanee

If I were a carpenter
And you were a lady
Would you marry me anyway?
Would you have my baby?
If I worked my hands in wood
Would you still find me?
Answer me, yes I would (yes I would)
I'd leave them all behind me

Save my love from loneliness
Save my love from sorrow
You know I'd give you all my loneliness
Come give me your tomorrow

If I worked my hands in wood
Would you still find me, baby?
Answer me, yes I would
I'd leave them all behind me
You know I would

Save my love from loneliness
Save my love from sorrow
I would give you all my loneliness
Come give me your tomorrow, baby

If I were a miller
Had a mill wheel grinding
Would you marry me anyway?
Would you have my baby?

Save my love from loneliness
Save my love from sorrow
I would give you all of my loneliness
Come give me your tomorrow, babe

Save my love from loneliness
Save my love from sorrow
I would give you all of my loneliness
Come give me some of your tomorrow, baby

Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
I want some of your loneliness
What have I, what have I really deep inside my heart
I'd probably give you some of that loneliness, babe
I said baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
