text: 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 mans 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 thats all one, our play is done,
      And well strive to please you every day.
