I wanted to share a new video of a song of mine called, “Pennies for Africa.”  I wrote this for DELTA KAPPA GAMMA and UNICEF.  The lyrics are below and you can listen to the song on YouTube

“PENNIES FOR AFRICA” by Rickey Pittman

 VERSE ONE:

There’s a child in Africa,

Whose name you don’t know,

Living somewhere in Africa,

In a place you’ll never go.

VERSE TWO:

They need food and clean water,

Doctors and teachers too,

But that will never happen,

Without some help from you.

VERSE THREE: 

Little girls and orphans,

Their poverty’s severe,

They need health, food, and safety,

And dreams like we have here.

CHORUS:

Pennies for Africa,

Give your pennies for a child.

It may not be easy,

And it might take a while.
