The Rag Man

I am afaid of the rag ma He is mean and ugly with coal dust eyes His mare is riddled with fleas and flies I will not show him my fear I am to strong for him while others run I stand and stare rag man, rag man go away never to return your not welcome, youre not wanted You are the substance of nightmares
