Jolly Miller

There was a jolly miller once
Lived on the River Dee
He danced and he sang from morn till night
No lark so blithe as he.
And this the burden of his song
For ever used to be
I care for nobody, no, not I,
If nobody cares for me.

I live by my mill, she is to me like parent child, and wife
I would not change my station
For any other in life.
No lawyer, surgeon, or doctor
E'erd had a groat from me
I care for nobody, no, not I,
If nobody cares for me
