River

It's coming on Christmas They're cutting down trees They're putting up reindeer And singing songs of joy and peace I wish I had a river I could skate away on But it don't snow here It stays pretty green I'll make a lotta money Then I'm gonna quit this crazy scene 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 I wish I had a river I could skate away on I made my baby cry Ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh I'm so hard to handle I'm selfish and I'm sad I've gone and lost the best baby That I ever had 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 I wish I had a river I could skate away on I made my baby say goodbye Ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh It's coming on Christmas They're cutting down trees Putting up reindeer And singing songs of joy and peace Well, 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
