When That I Was And A Little Tiny Boy Ska

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 beds
with a hey-ho, the wind and the rain
with tosspots still had drunken heads
for the rain it raineth every day
A great while ago the world began
with a 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
