River
Coming on Christmas,
They're cutting down trees
They're putting up reindeer
Singing songs of joy and peace
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on
But it don't snow here,
You know it stays pretty green
I'm gonna make a lot of money
And I'm gonna quit this crazy scene
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on
I wish I had a river so long
I teach my feet to fly
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on
I made my baby cry
She tried to help me
You know she put me at ease
She loved me so naughty
Made me weak in the knees
Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on
I'm so hard to handle
I'm selfish and I'm sad
Now I've gone and lost the best baby
That I've ever had
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on
Wish I had a river so long
I would teach my feet to fly
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on
It's coming on Christmas
They're cutting down trees
They're putting up reindeer
Singing songs of joy and peace
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on
I wish I had a river so long
I teach my feet to fly
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away
