My First Tv
Before they used computer chips

and printed circuits too,

TVs worked with different parts

like capacitors and tubes.

classic cars and music that rocks.

The Ed Sullivan show and Elvis Presley’s gyrating hips,
guys racing their cars for pink slips.

No more drive-in theaters or soda shops,
