Guys, please feel free to write your memories down about the days when every home didn't have color TV's in them and very few people drove Mercedes Benz's!
We had an old, round Zenith TV with knobs on it that were bigger than my hands. When we got bad grades my Dad would pull a tube out and we would have no TV until our grades came up. He is a sly one don't you think? I really thought the TV was broken is all! LOL Hugs!

I never knew a soul with a Benz!!!! We were poor (like everyone else)!!
I used to pass my best friends newspapers while she went swimming because she would let me watch Stoney Brooke cowboy extraordinaire!!!
I also remember the color film that was put over the screen to make it look as if it were in color.
Is this dating us? c(",
You are sounding great, Rhonda. Got everything all straightened out!!!
Love the voice,as always, girlfriend!!!!
Hugs Terri

When this song came out I was about fourteen and my brother made up a verse to it that I still remember to this day. It goes like this..."Oh Lord won't you buy me a new wooden leg, my old one has termites and it is a drag...My friends all have real ones, but mine it is fake...Oh Lord won't you buy me a new wooden leg!" LOL
