"Ragged Angel" Lyrics

(Dolly Parton)

Cindy was a ragged angel
Just a poor little girl on the street
Cindy's eyes showed signs of hunger
Never had enough to eat.

Cindy was a ragged angel
Golden hair and eyes of blue
Cindy loved her paper dolly
That's the only love she knew.

Cindy never knew her daddy
And her mommie was seldom home
Except for Cindy's paper dolly
Cindy was all alone.

Cindy slept with her paper dolly
On a blanket on the floor
She would shiver as the wind blew through
The crack beneath the door.

One night she laid with her paper dolly
Cold and hungry on the floor
That night God came for the ragged angel
And now Cindy won't ever be cold and hungry, no not anymore.

Ragged angel...
