The Ragdoll and the Teddy BearWords and Music: Carrie McKeown
The
rag

on her

on the wall,
with her flop

and her hands
so
small.
She
7
looked
to and fro
for her friend

He saw
Rag
doll
- and he jumped
with
glee,
say ing-
19
"Won't
you
stay
and
play
with
me?!"
22

So they played
in the grass
with the sun
in the sky
and
25
all
too
soon
the
day
slipped
by.
They danced
do zie- doh,
-
they
28
laughed
'Ho Ho Ho!'
and they all
sang
"me

32
The moon's
bright
light
led the way
for the pair,
the
35
sweet
Rag

- and the Ted

They skipped
