Calico |
| Take her to the river |
| Call her a river-child |
| Take her to the forest |
| Call her a little wild |
| Sell her to the gypsy |
| For a jar of metal coins |
| Take her to the mountain |
| And thrust yourself |
| Into her loins |
| Calico |
| Calico |
| Calico |
| Her lips are white as snow |
| She moved to the mountains |
| With a box all chiseled sharp |
| She moved to the highlands |
| With a box of books all dark |
| I knew her in the city |
| She and I would dance the night |
| Drink the wine of dripping berries |
| Toss the moon and count the lights |
| Calico |
| Calico |
| Calico |
| Her skin is soft as snow |
| Take her to the river |
| Call her a river-child |
| Take her to the forest |
| Call her a little wild |
