Ballad

The sun is shinning and the ground is dusty,

A child is working on a field,

His name is junior Scott,

Against the mighty sun he has no shield,

Working every day and night all the time,

He want to go to school every day,

Education is one of the human right,

But his parents can’t pay,

Hungry !, Hungry ! he is after work is done,

But they have not much to eat,

His body full with dirt

he comes home and the only thing he wants is sleep,

Ja he wants to go to school like us,

Writing an reading he wants to learn,

His father never went to school,

He would be the first who more money earns,
