But I would walk five hundred miles
And I would walk five hundred more,
Just to be the man who walked a thousand miles to fall down at your door

We looked down the river and we seen the British come
There must've been a hundred of them beatin' on the drum

Got a hundred and sixty million stars above

One hundred men will test today,
But only three win the Green Beret.

This line keeps coming to mind, but it's not a song, it's a poem from a book I had when I was a kid (still have) that started "If I had a hundred dollars to spend, or maybe a little more..." and it was about going to a pet store. Bummer. If I knew a tune for it, I could play it! :-)

I'm sorry to have taken so long
You must have been a bitch while I was gone
All this time you put up with fear
For a hundred thousand years

Fifteen, there's still time for you.
Time to buy and time to choose.
Hey fifteen, there's never a wish better than this when you only got a hundred years to live.

Another hundred people just got off of the train
And came up through the ground,
While another hundred people just got off of the bus
And are looking around
At another hundred people who got off of the plane
And are looking at us
Who got off of the train
And the plane and the bus
Maybe yesterday.

(Stephen Sondheim, from "Company")

Why has it been wasted
We could have raised maybe
Three hundred silver pieces or more

A hundred and fifty acres
That used to be my farm.
Son, you know I'm sorry
There's only memories for you know.

Hundred bottles of beer on the wall,
A hundred bottles of beer!
You take one down and pass it around,
Ninety-nine bottles of beer on the wall.

--Drinking song (obviously), also sung on schoolbuses. In St. Louis, Anheiser Busch company had a building with 100 bottles of beer painted on the wall, easily seen from the interstate highway. I guess it is still there.
