Текст (слова) песни: John Prine - The Twentieth Century is Almost Over



Back in 1899, when everyone was singing "auld lang syne"

A century took a long, long time for every boy and girl.

Now theres only one thing that Id like to know

Where did the 20th century go?

Id swear it was here just a minute ago

All over this world.

Chorus:

And now the 20th century is almost over,

Almost over, almost over

The 20th century is almost over

All over this world.

All over this world, all over this world

The 20th century is almost over, all over this world.

Does anyone remember the great depression?

I read all about it in true confession

Im sorry I was late for the recording session

But somebody put me on hold.

Has anybody seen my linoleum floors

Petroleum jelly, and two world wars?

They got stuck in the revolving doors

All over this world.

And now...

The winters getting colder, summers getting hotter

Wishin wells wishin for another drop of water.

And mother earths blushin cause somebody caught her

Makin love to the man in the moon.

Tell me how you gonna keep em down on the farm

Now that outer space has lost its charm?

Somebody set off a burglar alarm

And not a moment too soon.

Because...

Old father time has got his toes a tappin

Standing in the window, grumblin and a rappin

Everybodys waiting for something to happen.

Tell me if it happens to you!

The judgment 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!

And now...
