D A
Miss Bishop, I am ready for school
D
Ring the bell, and call us all in
A
One room, fifteen desks, and a stool
D
Black board, word cards, light so dim
D A
First grade in the front row
D
7th and 8th were in the rear
A
Study and recite, so it goes
D
Learn a little more each year
D A
Phonics, to help us read and spell
D
Writing and arithmetic taught with ease
A
World places learned so well
D
Big windows looked out to hickory trees
D A
Learned what life was about
D
Still have many mem- ories
A
Just a one room school house
D
In among the hickory trees.
