They All Laughed Lyrics - Sings George Gershwin - Sarah Vaughan

The odds were a hundred to one against me 

The world thought the heights were too high to climb 

But people from Missouri never incensed me 

Oh, I wasn't a bit concerned, for from history I have learned 

How many, many times the worm had turned 

They all laughed at Christopher Columbus 

When he said the world was round 

They all laughed when Edison recorded sound 

They all laughed at Wilbur and his brother 

When they said that man could fly 

They told Marconi, wireless was a phony 

It's the same old cry 

They laughed at me wanting you 

Said I was reaching for the moon 

But oh oh oh, you came through 

Now they'll have to change their tune

They all said we never could be happy 

They laughed at us and how 

But ho, ho, ho, who's got the last laugh? 

Hee, hee, hee, hee, let's at the past laugh 

Ha, ha, ha, who's got the last laugh now?
