They All Laughed==
Louis Daniel Armstrong, Ella Fitzgerald
*****************************************
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 had 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
Snort!
