I went to her official website and that's how the lyrics read there and every google search of the song comes up with "your notches, liberation doll" I believe the lyrics are on the inside of the vinyl album also with that great pic of her swimming on her back in the swimming pool!
Too young to be anything but slightly scared of the sheer hippieness of Joni, the sheer lefty dingbattiness, yet... yet... she is such a poet.. such a way with words.
"God goes up the chimney, like childhood Santa Claus, The good slaves love the good book, A rebel loves a cause" My word, what a lyric. And i write that as a Christian! Joni needs to understand and then believe, someone like C.S. Lewis because art ultimately does not sustain. Dangerous crutches emerge-I'm sure she's found out.
Thanks, steelyman08. Refreshing to, once again, listen to such thoughtfully crafted, intelligent lyrics being sung with such wonderfully spontaneous feeling!
at this point in her career she was unquestionably one of the finest and most influential musicians in the world. Happy birthday yesterday Joni!

@steelydrwu I thought I was seeing things for a moment. Must be the sauce. No, many
decades from now her songs should be in the Library Of Congress.

I didn't pay any attention to this back in the days of Rolling Stones and Elton John; but I am HEARING this now! Thank you Steelyman08 !

@JoanWasQuizzical1 I think Joni understands quite a bit about the nature of religion and that of a patriarchal society that subjugates women.

One of the best feminist songs, the lyrics are one of Joni's poems. The percussion is also incredible.
