River lyrics

It's coming on Christmas They're cutting down trees 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 Stays pretty green I'm gonna make a lot of money 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 would teach my feet to fly Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on I made my baby cry She tried hard to help me 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 I 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 I made my baby say goodbye Say goodbye It's coming on Christmas They're cutting down trees Putting up reindeer And singing songs of joy and peace Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on
