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.
