What are the words to the poem "Raggedy Girl"?
So sorry that I don't know the author but if anyone happens to know I would really appreciate it. My project is due in four days, so even if you just know the author, please leave a comment. Thanks!

RAGGEDY GIRL
There's a raggedy girl in raggedy clothes
With snarly hair and a runny nose
And she lives in a raggedy person's kind of place.
We're both of us about the same size.
We've both got bangs and dark brown eyes.
We've both got freckles polka-dotting our face.
But I go home to cookies and milk,
And a cozy comforter soft as silk,
And she goes where it's scary and sad to be.
Is this an accident? Was it planned?
Can somebody help me understand
Why the raggedy girl should be her,
And I should be me?

RAGGEDY GIRL
There’s a raggedy girl in raggedy clothes
With snarly hair and a runny nose
And she lives in a raggedy person’s kind of place.
We’re both of us about the same size.
We’ve both got bangs and dark brown eyes.
We’ve both got freckles polka-dotting our face.
But I go home to cookies and milk,
And a cozy comforter soft as silk,
And she goes where it’s scary and sad to be.
Is this an accident? Was it planned?
Can somebody help me understand
Why the raggedy girl should be her,
And I should be me?
