I Am Pleased to Be in My Company

 

I have no axe to grind.

I feel nothing is owed to me

Everywhere I look I find

It is exceedingly sweet to be

Of those who wined and dined.

 

I did my duty to the US of A

And reaped as I did sow

In work as well as in play

I enjoyed all that I could know

With no debt I could sail away.

 

I look for no thanks nor handout

I am owed nothing but what I took

I’ve no link to those who pout

I went as told and had a look

When over, with joy I did shout.

 

How lovely to be free of debt.

I owe not, nor am I owed

My fortune is as I deem to bet

At my choice have I sowed

Happiness is alone to be let.
