Johnny:
If I were a carpenter
And you were a lady
Would you marry me anyway?
Would you have my baby?
June:
If you were a carpenter
and I were a lady
I'd marry you anyway
I'd have your baby
Johnny:
If a tinker was my trade
Would I still find you?
June:
I'd be carrying the pot you made
Following behind you
Both:
Save your love through loneliness
Save your love through sorrow
Johnny:
I gave you my onliness
Both:
Give me your tomorrow
Johnny:
If I were a miller
at a mill wheel grinding
would you miss your coloured blouse
and your soft shoe shining?
June:
If you were a miller
at a mill wheel grinding
I'd not miss my coloured blouse
and my soft shoe shining
Both:
Save your love through loneliness
Save your love through sorrow
Johnny:
I gave you my onliness
Give me your tomorrow
If I worked my hands in wood
Would you still love me?
June:
I'd answer you: yes I would
Johnny:
And would you not be above me?
If I were a carpenter
And you were a lady
June:
I'd marry you anyway
I'd have your baby
Both:
Save your love through loneliness
Save your love through sorrow
Johnny:
I gave you my onliness
Both:
Give me your tomorrow
