A Hundred Years Ago              

Lyrics courtesy of www.sailorsongs.com

A hundred years is a very long time, Oh yes, oh,

A hundred years is a very long time A hundred years ago.

hey used to think that pigs could fly Oh yes, oh,

I don't believe it no, not I A hundred years ago

They thought the moon was made of cheese Oh yes, oh,

You can believe it, if you please A hundred years ago

They thought the stars was set alight Oh yes, oh,

By some good angel every night A hundred years ago
                                                                                                      
They hung a man for making steam Oh yes, oh,

They cast his body in the stream A hundred years ago

A hundred years is a very long time Oh yes, oh,

A hundred years is a very long time A hundred years ago

I thought I heard our old man say Oh yes, oh,

That we were homeward bound today It's time for us to go.....Belay
