It Ain't For Me Lyrics - Gilbert Osullivan

I have not a girl that's mine 

I have not a friend 

I have not got a place to live 

Indeed it seems the end 

But it ain't for me 

As I've got myself which matters most 

Throughout the life I lead 

I have not a penny in my pocket and if soon 

I should be found just as badly broken 

I won't gloom 

'cause it ain't me 

As I've got myself which matters most 

Throughout the life I lead 

I have wandered into many a town 

And have often been tempted to settle down 

Yet if I did I'm sure I'd find 

I'd always change my mind 

So I'll keep right ahead with what I'm doing 

Although I have no luxuries 

My mind is quite at ease 

It may seem medieval yet it's all that my heart pleads 

And it ain't for me 

'cause I've got myself which matters most 

Throughout the life I lead
