A Hundred Years Ago

A hundred years is a very long time, Ch: Oh yes, oh, A hundred years is a very long time A hundred years ago. They used to think that pigs could fly Ch: Oh yes, oh, I don't believe it no, not I A hundred years ago. They thought the moon was made of cheese Ch: Oh yes, oh, You can believe it, if you please A hundred years ago. They thought the stars was set alight Ch: Oh yes, oh, By some good angel every night A hundred years ago. They hung a man for making steam Ch: Oh yes, oh, They cast his body in the stream A hundred years ago. A hundred years is a very long time Ch: Oh yes, oh, A hundred years is a very long time A hundred years ago. I thought I heard our old man say Ch: Oh yes, oh, That we were homeward bound today It's time for us to go!
