When that I was and a little tiny boy
With hey, ho, the wind and the rain
A foolish thing was but a toy
For the rain it raineth every day
But when I came to man's estate
With hey, ho, the wind and the rain
'Gainst knaves and thieves men shut their gate
For the rain it raineth every day
But when I came, alas! to wive
With hey, ho, the wind and the rain
By swaggering could I never thrive
For the rain it raineth every day
But when I came unto my beds
With hey, ho, the wind and the rain
With toss-pots still had drunken heads
For the rain it raineth every day
A great while ago the world begun
With hey, ho, the wind and the rain
But that's all one, our play is done
And we'll strive to please you every day
With hey, ho, the wind and the rain
A foolish thing was but a toy
For the rain it raineth every day
But when I came to man's estate
With hey, ho, the wind and the rain
'Gainst knaves and thieves men shut their gate
For the rain it raineth every day
But when I came, alas! to wive
With hey, ho, the wind and the rain
By swaggering could I never thrive
For the rain it raineth every day
But when I came unto my beds
With hey, ho, the wind and the rain
With toss-pots still had drunken heads
For the rain it raineth every day
A great while ago the world begun
With hey, ho, the wind and the rain
But that's all one, our play is done
And we'll strive to please you every day
