Highwaymen - The Twentieth Century is Almost Over lyrics

[Verse 1] Back in 1899 Everybody sang "Auld Lang Syne" A hundred years would take a long-long time For every little boy and girl Now there's just one thing I would like to know Where did the twentieth century go? I swear it was there just a minute ago, all over this world [Chorus] All over this world All over this world The twentieth century is almost over All over this world [Verse 2] Does anybody recall the Great Depression? I read all about it in the True Confession Sorry I was late for the recording session Somebody put me on hold Did anybody see them linoleum floors, petroleum jelly, and two world wars? The went 'round in revolving doors, all over this world [Chorus] [Verse 3] Old father time is a-rumbling and a-rapping Standing at the window, thumping and a-tapping Everybody's waiting for something to happen I hope it don't happen to you You know, the judgement day is getting nearer There it is in the rear-view mirror If you duck down, I could see a little clearer, all over this world [Chorus][x3]
