Well if you would Id give you my onlyness Girl and all of my tomorrows All of my tomorrows Yeah (Come on!) [Organ Solo] [Verse 3] If a tinker were my trade Would you still find me? Carrying the pots and the pans that I made Walking along the highway That long lonely highway [Outro] If I was a carpenter And you were a lady And I was just a carpenter Instead of a rock and roll star Just a carpenter A carpenter A carpenter
