Facts:
  • Well, in 1992 we could get to Spain, well actually London or Paris in an hour and a half (or close to it) on Concorde. In 2012 now it takes longer again. In 1932, it still would take days to cross the Atlantic by ship. (Tim P. Ryan)
  • From the compilation album, Vernon Dalhart - "The Wreck Of The Old 97" And Other Early Country Hits - Vol. III (Old Homestead Records, 1985) (Stavro Arrgolus)
  • Hoo boy! Where do I even start with this one? The fish really do jump right in your boat in modern times. They're called Asian carp.

    And indeed, people still make liquor, though the prohibition that inspired that line is gone -at least until an even more insane Republican is "elected".

    Mules for farming are right out. Not even hippie "organic" freaks use them.

    We could certainly use farm relief -relief from corn subsidies so HFCS won't be in everything we eat making us fat.

    This guy got the 'watering the milk' part dead on. They call watered down milk "Skim". Crooks. (Stavro Arrgolus)
  • Song Lyrics:
    I just read a story
    and if that story's true
    Here are the things that are gonna happen in 1992

    If you-all wanna travel
    that won't be hard to do
    We'll get to Spain in an hour and a half in 1992
    You'll start to go a-fishin'
    with just a worm or two
    The fish will jump right in your boat
    and tell ya "Howdy doo"
    But ya bet yer bottom dollar
    if what I hear is true
    We'll still be cryin' for farm relief in 1992

    In 1992
    In 1992
    What a funny old world this world will be in 1992

    And when we want our dinner
    A steak or barbecue
    We'll eat a red or little green pill
    and say, "Well, now I'm through"
    We'll still have people tell us
    what we ought not to do
    But we'll still be making liquor in 1992

    The rooster will crow louder
    each morn at half past four
    The hens will lay a two pound egg
    and maybe two or more
    The cows will give ten gallons a day
    but what good will that do?
    They'll still be waterin' all the milk in 1992

    In 1992
    In 1992
    What a funny old world this world will be in 1992

    Oh, the corn will grow much higher
    and the wheat and cotton, too
    We'll never have to push a plow in 1992
    We'll plant the corn and cotton
    That's what we'll have to do
    But the crows will still have an appetite in 1992

    Your mule won't be so stubborn
    and won't be half so slow
    He'll turn around and look at you
    and say, "Come on, let's go"
    But the mule I got down on the farm
    sticks there as fast as glue
    and I think he'll still be standin' there in 1992

    In 1992
    In 1992
    What a funny old world this world will be in 1992
    (Stavro Arrgolus)
