Rag Doll
The Four Seasons · Other Songs - The Four Seasons
When she was just a kid
Her clothes were hand-me-downs
(Hand-me-down)
They always laughed at her when she came into town
Called her rag doll
Little rag doll
Such a pretty face should be dressed in lace
Ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
(Shag rag doll)
I'd change her sad rags into glad rags
If I could (if I could)
My folks won't let me
'Cause they say that she's no good
She's a rag doll, such a rag doll
Though I love her so
I can't let her know
Ooh ooh ooh ooh oh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh oh
Aah aah aah aah aah
I love you just they way you are
