Need of shell script to download data using ftp

Hi !

I am just wondering shell script to download data from ftp...

I have text file containing ftp address...looks like this

Code:
ftp://site...../filename.xyz
ftp://site...../filename.xyz
ftp://site...../filename.xyz
ftp://site...../filename.xyz

script has to read ftp address and then it has to download data using ftp...after downloading all data files, it should move all data to some directory, which will be having data files of last month, so basically it has to replace old files with new downloaded file..
