Memories of a Better Time
For older folks only - (Under 40, you won't understand)
You could hardly see for all the snow, Spread the rabbit ears as far as they go; Pull a chair up to the TV set, "Good night, David; Good night, Chet". Dependin' on the channel you tuned, You got Rob and Laura - or Ward and June; It felt so good, felt so right; Life looked better in black and white. * I Love Lucy, The Real McCoy's Dennis the Menace, the Cleaver boys; Rawhide, Gunsmoke, Wagon Train, Superman, Lois Lane; Father Knows Best, Patty Duke, Rin Tin Tin and Lassie too; Donna Reed on Thursday night, Life looked better in black and white. * I wanna go back to black and white; Everything always turned out right. Simple people, simple lives; Good guys always won the fights. Now nothin's the way it seems, In living color or on the screen, I wanna go back to black and white.. * In God they trusted, in bed they slept; A promise made was a promise kept.. They never cussed or broke their vows, They'd never make the network now. But if I could, I'd rather be In a TV town in the '50s; It felt so good, felt so right, Life looked better in black and white.. * I'd trade all the channels on the satellite, If I could just turn back the clock tonight. To when everybody knew wrong from right, Life was better in black and white. ___________________________________ This was sent to me by Ram Man. If you get TV Land on cable, many of the shows mentioned are still being shown. And you don't have to be over 40 to understand... |

No dial here! We were farmers and couldn't afford dial. It was either make your own or some lava!!!!! |
