Seven Select Songs/I hae a wife o' my ain
I HAE A WIFE O' MY AIN.
I hae a wife of my ain, I'll partake wi' naebody;I'll tak cuckold frae nane, I'll gie cuckold to naebody.I hea 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 frae naebody.Tul bo merry and free, I'll be sad for naebody;If naebody care for me, I'll care for naebody.
