We missed Social Class for a presentation by the grade 9 class. The grade 9s with singer-songwriter Lowry Olafson, wrote a song and presented the song to the K to 10 classes. The words to the song are listed below.
Country Kids-copyright Bengough School, Bengough, SK and Lowry Olafson
Country kids, get their kicks,
Cruising round, on the grids,
Up at six, do their chores,
They can drive a truck, they can ride a horse,
Love their Chev, but they don’t like Fords,
That’s just the way it is for country kids
-
Country kids, know some tricks,
How to rope, a cow that kicks,
Ride a bull at a rodeo,
Drive a tractor straight and slow,
Pray for rain and hope for snow,
That’s just the way it is for country kids.
-
The rolling hills, the endless sky,
the wind that shapes this land,
Country life can make you strong,
Help you understand.
-
Country kids, they’re pretty slick,
Best of friends, through thin thick,
Get up early, work till dusk,
Don’t give up when times get tough,
Party hard and live it up,
That’s just the way it is for country kids.
