CBack in 1899, everybody sang "aFuld lang sCyne"
CA hundred years would take a long long time for every boy and gGirl.
CNow there's just one thing that I'd like to know
FWhere did the 20th century gCo?
CI'd swear it was there just a minute ago
GAll over this woCrld.
[Chorus]
CAll oFver this worldC.
CAll oFver this woCrld.
CThe 20th century is almost over
GAlmost over, almCost over
CThe 20th century is almost over
CAll ovGer this worCld.
[Verse 2]
CDoes anyone recall the great depression?
CI read all about it in the Ftrue confCession
Csorry I was late for the recording session
CBut somebody put me on hGold.

FPetroleum jelly, and the two world wCars?
CThey went around in revolving doors
