In 100 yohr arim, Yiddish-American song
Summary
"In one hundred years from now"
Libretto: Boris Thomashefsky.
"One hundred years from now, people will be able to play to London and be back on the same day. I'll fly to France for lunch, Berlin for a matinee, and then on to Turkey for the night. By then, a penny will buy the world, and I'll still have all my own teeth."
