If I Were A Carpenter Lyrics

(James Timothy Hardin)
Dolly Parton with Joe Nichols
From Dolly Parton's: "Those Were The Days"

JOE:
If I were a carpenter
And you were a lady
Would you marry me anyway
Would you have my baby?

DOLLY:
If you were a carpenter
And I were a lady
I'd marry you anyway
I'd have your baby.

JOE:
If a tinker were my trade
Would you still find me
DOLLY:
I'd be carryin' the parts you made
Followin' behind you.

BOTH:
Save my love through loneliness
Save my love through sorrow
DOLLY:
I'm givin' you my onliness
JOE:
Give me your tomorrows.

JOE:
If I were a miller
At a mill-wheel grindin'
DOLLY:
I wouldn't miss my pretty dress
Or my soft shoes shinin'.

JOE:
If I were a carpenter
DOLLY:
If I were a lady
JOE:
Would you marry me anyway
DOLLY:
Yes, and I'd have your baby.

Save my love through loneliness
Save my love through sorrow
I'm giving you my onliness
Give me your tomorrow.

DOLLY:
Mmm-hmmmm
JOE:
If I were a carpenter
If you were a lady
DOLLY:
I'd marry you anyway.

BOTH:
I'd marry you anyway
Save my love through loneliness
Save my love through sorrow
DOLLY:
I'm giving you my onliness.

JOE:
Give me your tomorrow
DOLLY:
Save my love through loneliness
Save my love through sorrow
JOE:
Givin' you my onliness.

BOTH:
Give me your tomorrow
JOE:
If I were a carpenter
And you were a lady
DOLLY:
I'd marry you anyway
JOE:
Would you have my baby.

DOLLY:
I'd marry you anyway
And I'd have your baby
JOE:
If I were a carpenter
DOLLY:
If you were a carpenter

BOTH:
I'd marry you anyway...
