William Shakespeare - When that I was and a little tiny boy

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