The Broken Ones The Talley Trio Maggie came home one day with a raggedy Raggedy Ann She said, Mama, look what I found in the neighbors garbage can Had a missing left arm and a right button eye hanging by a thread She carried it gently up to her room and laid in on her bed (Chorus) She loves the broken ones, the ones that need a little patching up She sees a diamond in the rough and makes it shine like new It really doesnt take that much, a willing heart and a tender touch If everybody loved like she does; thered be a lot less broken ones Twenty years later in a shelter on eighteenth avenue A seventeen year old girl shows up all black and blue Needle tracks in her left arm; almost too weak to stand She says, Im lost and I need help as Maggie takes her hand And says, Come on in (Chorus) If you call her an angel, shell be quick to say to you Shes just doing what the one who died for her would do Love the broken ones, the ones that need a little patching up See the diamond in the rough and make it shine like new It really doesnt take that much, a willing heart and a tender touch If everybody loved like He does, thered be a lot less broken ones Tag: If everybody loved like He does, thered be a lot less broken ones
