Biografía:
John Conlee has achieved a level of success that he has sustained by simply being himself and by making records that the listening public can relate to. He is a gifted entertainer, but he’s not into the glitz and hype of the entertainment world. He’d rather spend his “off the road” time working on his 32 acre farm outside of Nashville, or engaging in his woodworking and gun-smithing hobbies.
Overall, there have been 29 single releases throughout the years with 26 of them charting in the top 20 or better.

The Carpenter
By John Conlee
Written By Guy Clark
[Verse 1]
Em D
Let us now praise a carpenter & the things that he made
C D
And the way that he lived by the tools of his trade
Em D
I can still hear his hammer singin' ten penny time
C D
Workin' by the hour till the day he died
[Chorus 1]
G
He was tough as a crowbar, he was quick as a chisel
D C G
Fair as a plane and true as a level
G
He was straight as a chalkline and right as a rule
D C G
He was square with the world he took good care of his tools
[Verse 2]
Em D
He worked his hands in wood from the crib to the coffin
C D
With a care and a love you don't see too often
Em D
He built boats out of wood, big boats workin' in a shipyard
C D
Mansions on the hill and a birdhouse in the backyard
[Chorus 2]
G
He said anything that's worth cuttin' down a tree for
D C G
Is worth doin' right, don't the Lord love a two by four
G
If you ask him how to do somethin', he'll say just like Noah built the ark.
D C G
You got to hold your mouth right son and never miss your mark.
