The Wind and the Rain

When that I was and a little tiny boy
With a 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 a 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 a hey, ho, the wind and the rain
By swaggering I could never thrive
For the rain it raineth every day

But when I came unto my bed
With a hey, ho, the wind and the rain
Some drunkard's song rang in my head
For the rain it raineth every day

A great while ago the world begun
With a hey, ho, the wind and the rain
But that's all one, our record's done
And we'll strive to please you every day
For the rain it raineth anyway
