     Michael wrote this song for Sesame Street. It tells about the important job each of us has; to give young trees a chance to grow up to be big trees.

I'd like to take a walk in the woods
Come with me, do you think you could
We'll find a tree that we can climb
We'll have fun all afternoon

Chorus:
Little trees need a chance to grow
It takes time and care
They're a lot like us you know

So many kinds of different trees
They look like one big family
Big ones, short ones, baby ones too
I'll name this one after you

It'll be a long time before he
Is tall and strong like a grown up tree
For now he's just a kid like us
Playing out in the woods
