There is a close parallel to THE HOUSE CARPENTER as sung by Joan Baez

Well met, well met, my own true love.
Well met, well met, cried he.
I've just returned from the salt, salt sea,
All for the love of thee.

I could have married the king's daughter dear.
She would have married me;
But I have forsaken her golden crown
All for the love of thee.

Well, if you could have married the king's daughter dear,
I'm sure it was your fault.
I am married to a house carpenter
And find him a nice young man.

This is in the DT and I just typed in a sample to see if it sounded similar to you.
