If I Were A Carpenter |
| 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. |
| BOTH: |
| 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… |
