NORY
RYAN'S SONG
Words by Penny Spinn, Academy
Elementary
(to the tune of the theme
song from the "Brady Bunch")
Here's
the story of Nory Ryan,
A little girl who lived
in Ireland.
By the seaside, with her
family,
In 1845.
They
grew potatoes for their survival,
But one year the potato
crop went bad.
With no potatoes they would
go hungry,
And they were very sad.
In
this story Nory Ryan showed great courage
By caring for her family
and friends.
They dreamed of one day
sailing to America,
But we can't tell you how
the story ends. |
