Raggedy Ann Lyrics

"You sure have been quite a doll Raggedy Ann"
yes'sa "Quite a doll"
but I didn't really know ya untill I started making these trips up here to talk to ya
and now I'm beginning to see more and more why my baby loved ya so much
Why Raggedy Ann sometimes I'd almost swear that your just about as alive as I am
When I hug you up close to me I can feel every ounce
of the warm glow of love the she must have felt
And you know what Raggedy Ann
I'd give anything I owned in this world if I knew just half of the memories that have passed through those little black button eyes of yours
Hid themselves, in your tear stained stuffing
Why I bet your just busting out with little ol childhood secrets that could really set a lonely man's heart aglo
Sometimes I still have to laugh the way you had to sample all of her food
and see all of her little new dresses and answer a thousand questions
It's really a small wonder that your all in one piece
the way she used to drag you around by one leg
everywhere she went
but you didn't seem to mind
cause you always had that big 'ol smile on your face
and you know something Raggedy Ann
I bet that smile has dried more tears and cured more little hurts than I could ever hope to kiss away
And I tell you something else, That big smile has given me strength to face some pretty trying times myself
And I wanna Thank you again Raggedy Ann
For helping me raise her after her mamma died
Somehow you just stepped right into her mama's shoes
and just that much farther into our heartsLittle Jimmy Dickens - Raggedy Ann - http://motolyrics.com/little-jimmy-dickens/raggedy-ann-lyrics.html
And then that year of the rain, remember?
One night the fever took my baby
You just laid right there beside her while I did everything I could right up to the end
And since then it's just been just me and you Raggedy Ann
Just me and You
But you know the years haven't seemed to bother you too much
'course your a little faded here and there from the wind and the rain
But that heart warming charm and that spark of love seems stronger now than it ever did
And look at me
Well I barely made it up the hill today
Look Raggedy Ann I can't even brush the dirt from my knees
So Don't look for me tomorrow
Aww I won't make it
I'd like to take you with me Raggedy Ann
But I know youd be happier right here
watching over my baby and keepin her warm

Well I gotta leave you now
I gotta Go
And bout the only thing that comes to my mind to say to you is
" God Bless Ya"
and
" You Sure Have Been Quite a Doll Raggedy Ann"
Yes'sa
" Quite A Doll"
