Really Old Stuff...

[Decus]

A Hundred Years from Today

Written in the early 30's and although sung by Vaughn, Sinatra, Day and a host of others; I found this to be a little known gem. This is an updated version:

Interesting that the first stanza of the song is rarely sung. The first words to this song are:
"Life is such a great adventure. Learn to live it as you go. No one in the world can censure what we do here below."
