River lyrics

It's coming on Christmas, And 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. It don't snow here, Stays pretty green. I'm gonna make a lot of money And 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 how to fly. Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on. I made my baby cry. You tried hard to help me, You put me at ease. You loved me so naughty, It 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 how to fly. Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on. I made my baby say goodbye. It's coming on Christmas And they're cutting down trees. Putting up reindeer, And singing songs of joy and peace. I wish I had a river I could skate away on.
