Gather 'round children and you will hear

The sound of a cricket crying in your ear

That's Mother Nature, she's crying out loud

This old earth needs some loving now, so



Put on your green shoes

Put on your green shoes

Mother Nature, she's calling to you

To put on your green shoes



Put on your green shoes and walk with me

We'll go around back and plant a tree

Help it grow and you will see

The way the world was meant to be



Put on your green shoes

Put on your green shoes

Mother Nature, she's calling to you

To put on your green shoes



Wonder how the world would be

Without the shade of a redwood tree

Without all the fish, the birds and the bees

Springtime would be lonely, so



Put on your green shoes

Put on your green shoes

Mother Nature, she's calling to you

To put on your green shoes
