SONG—I HAE A WIFE O' MY AIN_POEMS AND SONGS BY ROBERT BURNS

SONG—I HAE A WIFE O' MY AIN

I HAE a wife of my ain,

I'll partake wi' naebody;

I'll take 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 gude braid sword,

I'll tak dunts frae naebody.

I'll be merry and free,

I'll be sad for naebody;

Naebody cares for me,

I care for naebody.
