One Room School House

© by: Verne Garrison; Jan 9, 2006

Valley Park, Mo.

(D) Miss Bishop, I am ready for (A) school

Ring the bell, and call us all (D) in

One room, fifteen desks, and a (A) stool

Black board, word cards, light so (D) dim

(D) First grade in the front (A) row

7th and 8th were in the (D) rear

Study and recite, so it (A) goes

Learn a little more each (D) year

(D) Phonics, to help us read and (A) spell

Writing and arithmetic taught with (D) ease

World places learned so (A) well

Big windows looked out to hickory (D) trees

(D) Learned what life was (A) about

Still have many mem-(D)ories

Just a one room school (A) house

In among the hickory (D) trees.
