River

It's coming on Christmas They're cutting down trees They're putting up reindeers Singing songs of joy and peace I wish I had a river I could skate away on But it don't snow here, it just stays pretty green I'm gonna make a lot of 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 He tried hard to help me, he put me at ease And he 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 And now I've lost the best baby that I 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 bye It's coming on Christmas, they're cutting down trees They're putting up reindeers Singing songs of joy and peace I wish I had a river that I could skate away on
