Does anybody know the full lyrics to this track (the title track of Bert Jansch's 2nd album)? I can't seem to find them anywhere. Thanks!

IT DON'T BOTHER ME
As sung by Bert Jansch on "It Don't Bother Me" (1965)

To be exposed in all my strife,
You gaze upon my troubled life,
But it don't bother me what you see.
No, oh, no, it just don't bother me.

You take my name and hang it high.
You paint my picture with coloured lies,
But it don't bother me what you do.
No, oh, no, it just don't bother me.

You twist my words like plaited reeds
To mark your gain and help your needs,
But it don't bother me what you say.
No, oh, no, it just don't bother me.

What truth is told of who I am
Shall break the silence of waters calm,
But it don't bother me who I am.
No, oh, no, it just don't bother me.

But if I was a beggar boy,
I'd sing of riches I could enjoy,
But it don't bother me what they are.
No, oh, no, it just don't bother me.

I'm a-thinkin' now I'd rather hide,
Or turn my back and stand aside,
But it, it don't bother me what I do.
No, oh, no, it don't bother me.
It just don't bother me.
