Raggedy Ann
This is a song by Mindy Smith, who is a wonderful artist. She has a lot of christian themes in her music (Come to Jesus is an ammmmaaaazing song) and a beautiful, cute, wonderful voice. She plays guitar and sings these songs of love, life, faith, loss and being different. This is my theme song. I love singing it in my car but I always end up in tears crying.



Raggedy Ann

These hand me downs I am wearing
Are worn at the knees, color faded.
All the little children are laughing.
I'm trying to find a reason to keep from cryin'.

I'm just a little girl,
I'm Raggedy Ann
Making Believe I'm happy, hey...Raggedy Ann
Falling apart at the seams.

The tears that I covered with patches
Red yellow paterns, nothing I own matches,
Where I have them sewn with black stiches
remain exposed to be soiled and tattered.

I'm just a little girl
I'm Raggedy Ann
Making believe I'm happy, hey...Raggedy Ann
Falling apart at the seams...

So when did I get so broken?
I wouldn't notice...
Everything just breaks away from me.
When did I get so broken?
I wouldn't notice...
Everything important leaving me.
Falling apart at the seams.

All the busy people keep walking away
like they can't see me or
anything.
Everyday it gets a little harder
to believe in magic and people.

I'm just a little girl
I'm Raggedy Ann
Making believe I'm happy...Raggedy Ann.
Falling apart at the seams
