help needed! my first script

Create a file with x amount of lines in it, the content of your choice.

Write a script named 'firstline' that takes two arguments. The first being a line of text, the second being your newly created file. The script should take the first argument and insert it into the very top (the first line) of the file named in your second argument.
any help!
