**All verses as verse 1**
Robin the miller he's fond of brass,
Sees a fool's face when he looks in glass,
Thinks he'll bargain like grain for me,
But oh, I wish he would let me be,
Oh, I wish he would let me be,
Robin, let me be.
There came a man named Bonnie Jim,
He looks so fine in his holiday trim.
Thinks he'll take me off to the sea,
But oh, I wish he would let me be,
Oh, I wish he would let me be,
Jim, let me be,
Jim, let me be.
G C F x 4
La, la, la, la etc.
Cousin Dick, he has gold and land,
He thinks all this will win my hand.
My hand or lips he will never see,
But oh, I wish he would let me be,
Oh, I wish he would let me be,
Dick, let me be.
This young soldier boy is Ned,
His gun's like his own, he can shoot me dead.
His eyes are blue but they don't see me,
Oh, why does he let me be?
Oh, why does he let me be?
Let me be,
Why, you let me be?
La, la, la, la etc.
