The Wind and the Rain

from Twelfth Night by Owen Evans

/

lyrics

O 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.

And 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 rains, it raineth every day.

And when I came, alas, to wive,

With a hey, ho, the wind and the rain,

By swaggering could I never thrive,

For the rain, it raineth every day.

And 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 rains, it raineth every day.

Hey, ho, the wind and the rain
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 play is done,

And we will strive to please you every day.
