    Story Behind the Song
    this song is about being bankrupt, losing your girl and getting drunk.

    Lyrics
    100 Years

    Well I'm sorry my friend but pocket's to an end
    I spent my last dollar on this here guitar
    And I'd like to share a drink while we both sit down to think
    'bout the last time that fortune's passed us by

    And I know
    It'll be a hundred years or so
    Before I ever win back my gold
    That I've lost since I've been out on my own
    I've been bankrupt one year from the get go.

    Well I'm sorry she said but we're drawing to and end
    And I'd like to think that you and I can still be friends
    Cause although we had our lovin' we were fallin' way behind
    Now I'm gonna find me a man with money and style

    And I know
    It'll be a hundred years or so
    Before I ever win back my love
    And I'm learning pretty well how to let go
    I've been bankrupt one year from the get go.

    I might fumble I might fail, I might well end up in jail
    My woman says my whiskey gets the better share of me
    And although I ain't keepin' dry, well hell I ain't a been doin' time
    Might be lonesome, hell I'm broke, yeah but I'm free

    And I know
    It'll be a hundred years or so
    Before I ever win back my gold
    That I lost since I've been out on my own
    I've been bankrupt one year from the get go.
    Hell and I know
    It'll be a hundred years or so
    Before I ever win back my gold
    I've been bankrupt since the year that I left home
    Now I owe more than I've ever owned
    Hell now I owe more than I've ever owned
