Emi D C H When that I was and a little tiny boyEmi C Ami H with a heyho, the wind and the rainEmi D C H a foolish thing was but a toyG Ami H Emi 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 doneG Ami H C and we'll strive to please you every day,G Ami H Emi to please you every day
