1 | 1 | There was a jolly miller once | There was a jolly miller once lived on the river Dee; |
2 | 2 | He worked and sung from morn till night, no lark more blithe than he. | |
3 | 3 | And this the burden of his song for ever used to be: | |
4 | 4 | "I care for nobody, no, not I, if nobody cares for me. | |
5 | And this the burden of his song | ||
6 | Forever used to be; | ||
7 | I care for nobody, no, not I, | ||
8 | If nobody cares for me. | ||
9 | 5 | ||
10 | 6 | "I love my mill, she is to me like parent, child and wife, | |
11 | 7 | I would not change my station for any other in life. | |
12 | 8 | The | Then push, push, push the bowl, my boys, and pass it round to me, |
13 | 9 | The longer we sit here and drink, the merrier we shall be." | |
14 | I do not fear next quarter-day; | ||
15 | In debt to none I be. | ||
16 | I care for nobody, no, not I, | ||
17 | If nobody cares for me. | ||

19 | 11 | So sang the jolly miller, who lived on the river Dee; | |
20 | 12 | He worked and sung from morn till night, no lark more blithe than he. | |
21 | 13 | A | And this the burden of his song for ever used to be: |
22 | 14 | "I care for nobody, no not I, if nobody cares for me." | |
23 | Though I may fail, yet I rejoice, | ||
24 | Another's good hap to see. | ||
25 | I care for nobody, no, not I, | ||
26 | If nobody cares for me. | ||
27 | |||
28 | So let us his example take, | ||
29 | And be from malice free; | ||
30 | Let every one his neighbour serve, | ||
31 | As served he'd like to be. | ||
32 | And merrily push the can about | ||
33 | And drink and sing with glee; | ||
34 | If nobody cares a doit for us, | ||
35 | Why not a doit care we. |
