When That I Was...
Roman Benedict
&
?
&
&
?
But when I came to man's estate,
With hey, ho,
'Gainst knaves and thieves men shut their gate,
For the rain,
But when I came, alas! to wive,
With hey, ho,
By swaggering could I never thrive,
For the rain,
But when I came unto my beds,
With hey, ho,
With toss-pots still had drunken heads,
For the rain,
A great while ago the world begun,
With hey, ho,
But that's all one, our play is done,
And we'll strive to please you every day.
