My memory likes to pick and choose

of what to save and what to lose

And this is where the trouble starts

I tend to miss important parts

Oh, I remember Chippy Roach

And Clarabell the Clown

But, send me for some bread and milk

You gotta write it down

Howdy Doody, Major Mudd

And Buster in a shoe

Superman on Friday night,

That crazy Dr. Who

A pizza from the Pizza House

Some Maydale gingerale

Fried clam plate from Uncle Pete's

to Ericson's we'ed sail

Cash in bottles for a treat

a fudgesicle or two

Spitting off the Main Street bridge

And all the things we used to do

No more fried foods, no more salt

My sugars kinda high

My teeth won't take the corn on cob

but, still I like to try

So come with me and reminisce

together we will fly

Down dusty roads back in our youth

it's easy if you try

Return we must, to present day

I thank you for the chat

I have no clue of who you are

and don't remember where I sat
