How do I get the classic drop down bookmarks menu back?

I have a new computer with a new version of Firefox installed. Is there any way to get the old, classic menu back like I had previously (the menu on the top of the screen with File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, etc)? When I hit the "Alt" key the classic menu appears, but as soon as I click on anything it disappears again. In my previous version the menu was always there. In particular, I would like to set it up so I can click once on the Bookmarks tab of the classic menu and have it show a drop down of all my bookmarks like I used to have. Is that possible?

That is known as the Menu Bar.

Thank you very much! I now have the Menu bar back at the top. However, when I click on the Bookmarks tab, I don't see any option that allows me to "Bookmark this page." I bookmarked a couple pages by clicking on the star icon on the right side of the top of the screen, but these bookmarks do not show up in the drop down menu when I click on the Bookmarks tab in the Menu Bar. Is there a way to get the Bookmarks tab in the Menu Bar to show all my bookmarks in the dropdown menu and allow me to bookmark new pages?

Oh, never mind! I see what I was doing wrong. Thanks!
