They All Laughed Lyrics - Tony Bennett

1 The odds were a hundred to one against me

2 The world thought the heights were too high to climb

3 But people from Missouri never incensed me

4 Oh, I wasn't a bit concerned

5 For from hist'ry I had learned

6 How many, many times the worm had turned

7 They all laughed at Christopher Columbus

8 When he said the world was round

9 They all laughed when Edison recorded sound

10 They all laughed at Wilbur and his brother

11 When they said that man could fly

12 They told Marconi

13 Wireless was a phony

14 It's the same old cry

15 They laughed at me wanting you

16 Said I was reaching for the moon

17 But oh, you came through

18 Now they'll have to change their tune

19 They all said we never could be happy

20 They laughed at us and how!

21 But ho, ho, ho!

22 Who's got the last laugh now?

23 They all laughed at Rockefeller Center

24 Now they're fighting to get in

25 They all laughed at Whitney and his cotton gin

26 They all laughed Fulton and his steamboat

27 Hershey and his chocolate bar

28 Ford and his Lizzie

29 Kept the laughers busy

30 That's how people are

31 They laughed at me wanting you

32 Said it would be, "Hello, Goodbye."

33 But oh, you came through

34 Now they're eating humble pie

35 They all said we'd never get together

36 Darling, let's take a bow

37 For ho, ho, ho!

38 Who's got the last laugh?

39 Hee, hee, hee!

40 Let's at the past laugh

41 Ha, ha, ha!

42 Who's got the last laugh now?
