When That I Was And A Little Tiny Boy (Twelfth Night) - Cleo Laine

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 at last 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
