100 Years ago - The Rolling Stones

Went out walkin' through the wood the other day

And the world was a carpet laid before me

The buds were bursting and the air smelled sweet and strange

And it seemed about a hundred years ago


Mary and I, we would sit upon a gate

Just gazin' at some dragon in the sky

What tender days, we had no secrets hid away

Well, it seemed about a hundred years ago


Now all my friends are wearing worried smiles

Living out a dream of what they was

Don't you think it's sometimes wise not to grow up?


Went out walkin' through the wood the other day

Can't you see the furrows in my forehead?

What tender days, we had no secrets hid away

Now it seems about a hundred years ago


Now if you see me drinkin' bad red wine

Don't worry 'bout this man that you love

Don't you think it's sometimes wise not to grow up?


You're gonna kiss and say good-bye, yeah, I warn you

You're gonna kiss and say good-bye, yeah, I warn you

You're gonna kiss and say good-bye, oh Lord, I warn you

And please excuse me while I hide away


Call me lazy bones

Ain't got no time to waste away

Lazy bones ain't got no time to waste away

Don't you think it's just about time to hide away? Yeah, yeah!
