It's from "Bob and Ray on a Platter".

The rain has turned to tears...
And I've been so terribly horribly lonesome all these years*
And I've only had two beers.

* or words to that effect (hey, haven't heard it in a long time)

If you start a Bob & Ray discography, aside from the "Two and Only" cast album, 
there's that ten-inch Unicorn lp from 1954, 4 sides for Coral of which two 
appeared only on lp (World News Roundup and No Talent Hunt, both too long for 
78s), and a Mary Backstage compilation that seems to have been issued privately 
and then by Radiola. Plus the Genesis lp of 20 of their best radio sketches.
