Naebody

Robert Burns (1759–1796)

I hae a wife o' my ain,I'll partake wi' naebody;I'll tak cuckold frae nane,I'll gie cuckold to naebody.

I hae a penny to spend,There—thanks to naebody;I hae naething to lend,I'll borrow frae naebody.

I am naebody's lord,I'll be slave to naebody;I hae a guid braid sword,I'll tak dunts fra naebody.

I'll be merry and free,I'll be sad for naebody;If naebody care for me,I'll care for naebody.
