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
