Текст песни If I Were A Carpenter

[CHORUS]

If I was a carpenter

And you were a lady

Would you marry me anyway?

Would you have my baby?

[VERSE 1]

If a tinker was my trade

Would you tinker with me?

Would you keep the vows we made

Followin' behind me?

And if I was Jesus

And I built some crosses

Could you see the future?

Could stand the losses

Of lovin' a carpenter

And being a lady

And takin' a chance on me

Just to be my baby?

Save my love through loneliness

Save my love through sorrow, yes

I'll give you my onliness

If you just give me tomorrow

If I was a rock star

Would you be my groupie?

Would you make sweet love to me?

Come to California?

Well, I might go crazy

I have to warn ya

Well, I get so mean sometimes

When the spirit's on me

That I think I'm Jesus

Out buildin' crossesLeon Russell - If I Were A Carpenter - http://ru.motolyrics.com/leon-russell/if-i-were-a-carpenter-lyrics.html

Could ya see the future?

Could ya stand the losses?

Of lovin' a carpenter

And being a lady

And takin' a chance on me

Just to be my baby?

Save my love through loneliness

Save my love through sorrow, yeah

I'll give you my onliness

If you'd only give me tomorrow

[BRIDGE]

[Repeat CHORUS]

[Repeat VERSE 1]

And if I was Jesus

And I built some crosses

Could you see the future?

Could stand the losses

Of lovin' a carpenter

And being a lady?

Would ya take a chance on me?

Would ya be my baby?

Come take a chance on me

Won't you come away with me

Come take a chance on me

Won't you be my baby?

Won't ya take a chance on me?

Won't ya be my baby?

Won't ya take a chance on me?

Won't ya be my... ohh, be my... ohhh

... Be my... ohhh...
