Elvis Costello - "When That I Was a Little Tiny Boy" lyrics
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
But when I came to mans estate
Every day
With a hey-ho
The wind and the rain
gainst knaves and thieves men shut their gate
For the rain it raineth
Every day
With a hey-ho
But when I came alas to wife
The wind and the rain
By swaggering I could never fright
With a hey-ho
The wind and the rain
A foolish thing was but a toy
For the rain it raineth
But when I came to mans estate
Every day
With a hey-ho
The wind and the rain
gainst knaves and thieves men shut their gate
For the rain it raineth
Every day
With a hey-ho
But when I came alas to wife
The wind and the rain
By swaggering I could never fright
For the rain it raineth
Every day
But when I came unto my bed
With a hey-ho
The wind and the rain
With tosspots still a drunken head
For the rain it raineth
Every day
A great while ago the world began
With a hey-ho
The wind and the rain
But thats all one our play is done
And well strive to please you
Every day
