I was born in Nineteen-hundred, Victoria was queen
The first of seven children, only three made sweet sixteen
It was hard but it was happy, it was roses around the door
'Till we all saluted father, as he went of to the war
I was tea boy in the factory the day the news arrived
Making mother one more widow, but together we survived
Now the century's near over, I've watched it wax and wane
And as I recall it all in all, it's a life I'd live again

At 18 I was courting, Mary filled my heart with pride
D G
Twenty saw us married, stepping out there side by side
C
The work was never easy, but we did it day by day
D G
Saving ha'pennies and farthings 'til we'd ten pounds put away
C G C G
Then the slump took jobs and savings, I had a lot of time
C G F D
So I learned the old mouth organ, "Buddy, can you spare a dime
G C
Now the century's near over, I've watched it wax and wane
D G D G
And as I recall it all in all, it's a life I'd live again
