Folk and Traditional Song Lyrics:
Hi Fi Stereo Color TV

Hi Fi, Stereo, Color TV

Hi Fi, Stereo, Color Tv
(John Cohen, Jay Ungar)

There was a town in this country
And none of the children there could read, with a

cho: Hi fi, stereo, color TV
     Stereo, Color TV

For the printed page they had no use
And they treated newspapers with abuse, with their

cho:

The School Board was surprised indeed
To find out none of the kids could read, 'cause of

cho:

To make sure all of the kids would pass
They replaced the teacher in every class, with a

cho:

The children all soon learned to read,
And then they found they had no nead, for a

cho:

So a plan was made by these clever creatures
To record the lessons of their teachers, on a

cho:

With a video receiver in every chair,
The children were free to roam anywhere, from the

cho:

Now up on the hills they roam like elves
While the TV sets just watch themselves, on the

cho:

Note: To the "Hi fie, diddle I diddle I fie" version of Devil and
  the Farmer's wife.
